Vit D level in all: You have the typical symptoms of Vitamin D deficiency ! The doctor who did the level has not treated you? Contact the doctor. Ideally 50,000 units by mouth once a week x 6 months & repeat the level. You can start taking OTC Vitamin D3 10,000 units daily. The Vit. D level should be maintained around 50 though lab fixes above 30 to be a normal level.
