My wife has been suffering from upper back pain for the past 20 days. Initially, the pain was radiating, but now it has become localized to a pinpoint area in the upper middle back. We have done an X ray and blood tests, and both came back normal. So far, we have consulted three orthopedic doctors, but she has not found any relief from the pain.

Persistent back pain without findings may need an MRI to check soft tissues or nerves. Physiotherapy and posture correction often help. Avoid stress on back.

Is 25(OH) Vitamin D the same as Vitamin D3? My recent report shows 25(OH) Vitamin D is 55.90. Eight months ago, my Vitamin D3 level was 13, and I took Vitamin D3 60,000 IU once a week for 3 months. I started taking it again for the past 1 month. Should I continue taking Vitamin D3 60,000 IU or stop now? Also, my current Vitamin B12 level is 494. Should I continue the B12 tablets or stop them?

I recently got a blood test report showing my Vitamin D level as 18.11 ng/mL. I am experiencing fatigue, unusual joint and muscle aches, and back pain. Could these symptoms be due to low Vitamin D? Should I take Vitamin D3 60,000 IU once a week? Please advise what I should do.
