How To Treat The Weakness Caused By Vitamin D Deficiency?

Hello Doctor,



My Mother-In-Law who is aged around 45 years is suffering from severe weakness from many years[almost 15 years]



Now it has been severe and she is unable to walk properly and perform her daily duties.

Around 2 years back we have consulted one Rheumatologist and he performed some clinical tests and concluded that she has vitamin d deficiency.He gave some medicines and she used it for only some months and again the situation is normal.



Now again i want to show her to some specialist.can you please give me advice to which specialist i have to show her.



Thanks,

Sreenath Reddy C.

Hi. I would advise a re-visit to a Rheumatologist as this deficiency may be linked to some auto-immune disease and the Rheumatologist are qualified to deal with those.
