What Causes Dizziness When Diagnosed With Vitamin D Deficiency?

I am a 49 year old woman, vit. D deficient and have developed a 2 inch. long dent in the top of my head center and slightly to the right about 1/8 to 1/4 inch deep, first noticed about 3 weeks ago. No pain. sometimes it does not feel as deep. I take RX 50,000 units of Vit. D one time per week. No head injury, not dehydrated. I have not been diagnosed with Osteoporosis. The only RX meds I take are the vit. D, Metoprolol, and Omeprazole other than that I take ASA 81mg and vitamins. Last blood work was about 3 months ago which was all normal. I have occasional dizziness, ( which is not new) and had a TIA about 10 years ago. What could this be.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Please upload a photo of this affected area. Chances are that these cranial landmark is not acute at all though it was noticed by you. More likely to be part of your skull's normal topography. However, getting someone to physically look at it, take a picture of it, and take physical measurements would not be a bad idea.
