Hi,

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of peripheral neuropathy, which can be caused by a deficiency in vitamin D and B12. Low vitamin D levels can lead to weak bones and muscle weakness, while a deficiency in vitamin B12 can cause nerve damage.

I recommend speaking with your doctor about your symptoms and getting your vitamin D, and B12 levels checked again. They may recommend taking supplements or making dietary changes to improve your levels. Your doctor may also want to run additional tests to rule out other potential causes of your symptoms.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
