Not really. Calcium deficiency due to vitamin d deficiency is very common in our country. You should try taking VitD3 60,000 units twice a week for 2 weeks and then repeat the testing and if calcium/vit d are still low, we can work you up for malabsorption. In my experience, it is very rare and I think all you need to do is just take high dose supplementation.
