Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Hi, I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
I am glad to know about your healthy lifestyle. In fact your reports are also very good and don't need any special consideration. However, you have Vitamin D deficiency that might be causing you these symptoms of tiredness and pain in calf and muscles can be due to Vitamin D deficiency.
So, i would recommend you to go for Vitamin D supplementation. You should take
Vitamin D 60 k Sachet/tablet once a week for at least 3 months initially and get your Vitamin D levels repeated again.
You need to write to me again with improvement in symptoms and the report after 3 months to decide further course of action.
This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any other query, you may please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
