Question 1

Hi Doctors, my 5 year old kid has been complaining of fibula pain for more than a year. Last January we did his blood test (CBC and Vitamin D3). We found vitamin D3 deficiency and CBC was ok except for a slightly elevated platelet count as he had cough at that time. We consulted a pediatrician and he told us that the kid will have pain due to vitamin D3 deficiency and nothing to worry. He gave some vitamin D3 medicine and it healed the pain, and he did not complain of pain until this month. He gets pain mostly at night after his outdoor activities like playing in the park. The pain lasts for 2 hours and he finds it difficult to walk, but the next morning he walks properly. Can you please suggest the treatment? Do we need to take him to the pediatrician again or to an orthopedic doctor? Please help.

Question 2

25 OH vitamin deficiency. I am sending my report for the same. Please help what to do. What food products should I eat and what medicines should I take?

Question 3

I have tested my Vitamin D level at 120 and Vitamin B12 at 485. Could you please tell me what the healthy ranges are for these vitamins, and how I can maintain or improve my levels?

A PTH level of 22 pg per ml is within normal range. Weakness could be due to other causes. Monitor calcium, Vitamin D, and continue care for other conditions.
