Vitamin d deficency
Hi, ive been having pins and needles all over body with burning sensations, and twitches. I also get shaky especially when going down the steps. Last month, I found out I got low vitamin d deficiency. I started to drink my pills once a week for four weeks. Can these symptoms be from vitamin d deficiency. I also have an appt for MRI soon.
What were the vit D levels? If it was less than 10 then injection shot needs to be taken immediately as pills will not work fast enough to increase the levels. After one shot of vit D you can continue vit D pills 60k IU strength once a week for 8 weeks and then once a month for atleast 6 months.
Why are you getting MRI done?
