Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM. I have gone through the question and understand your concerns.
Your blood tests is showing low vitamin D. The symptoms you are having may be related to that. The recommended dose of vitamin D replacement is:
60,000 iu weekly once x8 weeks
60,000 iu monthly once x 4 months
60,000 once in 2 months there after as a maintenance dose.
You have mentioned the T4 report as 1.12 which is very low. It could be a typing error or a lab error. Please repeat it or do a free T4 if it is really low.
Hope I have answered your questions. If you have any further queries I will be happy to help you
