Hello.
I have read your message.
I think I can help you.

From the query I am unaware about the exact levels of vitamin D levels, lipid profile.

Coming to diabetes, I think a good diet control and moderate physical exercise would be useful. Besides, sugar needs to be monitored regularly. That would help further.
If sugar's remain high despite diet and exercise simple medicine like Metformin in mild doses would be useful.

A supplement of vitamin D with calcerol 60000 once a week for 6 weeks is going to help with vitamin D levels.

For lipid profile medicine called atorvastatin would help along with low fat diet. The exact dose depends on the report.

I have tried to make it as simple as possible.
Feel free to contact me for further details.
Best wishes.
