Your report shows vitamin D in the deficient range, which fits with the joint and bone aches you are describing. Bone and joint pain from this usually eases gradually once levels come back up.
Next Steps
Continue the vitamin D your doctor already started, and mention your fatty liver to them too, since liver function can affect how vitamin D is absorbed.
Health Tips
If the pain gets worse instead of better, or new symptoms show up, let your doctor know rather than waiting it out.
