Vitamin d deficiency or something worse?

Posted , 5 users are following.

Hi,

So around 8 weeks ago I woke up one day and was extremely dizzy all day. This has never happened before since then so was a bit concerning. After 3 days of dizziness I went to doctors and was told it was an inner ear infection. Anyways from that I've since had gradual tingling in the tips of my fingers, then my hand would go completely numb ( this only happened when I had been asleep) the pain in my hand was awful and I struggled to move or use it properly. As the weeks went on I started getting back ache, awful like dull shooting pains in my thighs and knees, my shoulders and neck hurt at times. I have tension heacaches, and my shins hurt also. My arms go very weak at times to. But as the weeks have gone on my symptoms come and go like my hand doesn't hurt anymore, my knees don't either. My thigh pain comes and goes, and now it's affecting my upper arms the most. My skin also goes really hot. And I also feel like my bones go cold it's a really weird feeling and it sticks around for a while. And lately I've been waking up to swollen gums, my that bleed even if touched. I'm really scared and I think the worse things constantly. My dizziness is still present but not as bad but comes and goes. I also have symptoms like itching skin, ear popping, dry eyes. But it seems to change daily it's really strange. Does anyone else experience this and could it be vitamin d Deficiency or would I not get my symptoms from know where like I did with this? I feel like I'm going insane. I'm 25 year old female, some of the women in my family have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, and my pain is uncomfortable at times it was quiet paralysing. But it's not chronic. So it couldn't be that could it.

    Finally got my blood results. The receptionist just said my vitamin d is low and I have to see my doctor to discuss it more. I am going tomorrow to see him. Pain in my legs and arms has been really bad today so I can't wait to see if everything will eventually get better.

      I think they did tbh but they said everything else was normal. Including auto immune disease.

      What is "normal" for one person may not be enough for another. It's symptoms which need to be treated not just looking at numbers on a computer screen.

    So it's been 3 weeks since I've been taking my supplements. I don't know if I'm feeling any better as my I can't feel much of a difference if I am. Tonight I'm bad again, pain in my arms and even my face and gums! Shooting pains in my head are bad today aswell. And tingling in my hands and feet have been bad. Also had an awful stomach and indegestion with bad chest pain this last week. Still not got my ct scan results back.
