Can Vitamin D Deficiency Causes Itchy Skin, Exhaustion And Muscle Aches?

Hello, I am a 55 year old female, I have itchy skin, feel exhausted, my muscles ache, I don t sleep well, I feel depressed and anxious a lot, I recently had a lump in my left breast and the doctor thought it was an infection of sorts and put me on antibiotics, I didn t finish them all as I was having a sick stomach from them and noticed that some sinus stuff and sneezing seemed to also subside when I was taking the antibiotics. I am overall exhausted feeling....the lump went away from the antibiotics, ears are constantly plugged, post nasal drip a lot. Wonder about vitamin B deficiency and maybe D?

Hi,

Vitamin D deficiency can cause some respiratory problems. The muscle ache, bone pains are because of calcium deficiency, kindly get your calcium levels checked. We can supplement you with vitamin D OD 400IU/day. I suggest you get a bone profile done along with CBC, vitamin B12 as well. Follow up with me with your reports.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
