Hi !

Thank you for your query.

Dear sir ,

Well looking into your history there is a possibilty that excess vitamin D may have led to this. vitamin D causes abnormally high blood concentrations of calcium (hypercalcemia), which can cause calcium deposition and renal stones .

Since you are having UTI that may be unrelated or related . One thing is that get vitamin D levels , calcium levels , ALP , USG abdomen etc for evaluation .

The recommended daily allowance is 600 IU per day ,now you can assess whether you had an overdosage or if its not there it may be totally .

I advise you to see an endocrinologist for further evaluation if you had excess dose of vitamin D.

Take care.

Dr. Shruti
