Dear Friend.
Hi , I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
it is very difficult to comment on with these details. Also need to know his age , alcohol status , and need to see the reports.
Vitamin D production in body involves liver also , if his liver is not functioning well , levels will fall down.
If he is an adult possibility of Chronic Liver disease (Cause can be Alcohol , Viral Hepatitis) is high since he has enlarged spleen.
Let us know ,if he has jaundice , esophageal varices , ascitis.
If you could give us detail history and also if you could share the reports , we would be able to guide you better.
This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you want to discuss your issues further, you may please ask us
Stay Healthy.
