In the diet only milk , mushrooms can be added for vegetarians apart from sunlight ! But best would be to take supplements for vit D till it comes to normal level and then try maintaining it through the diet, apart from that get vitamin. B12 levels checked, your symptoms are more suggestive of b12 deficiency so accordingly the treatment can be decided by the doctor.
