Some additional information may be helpful so that I can make more specific recommendations for your situation:

• Have you had these symptoms for a certain period of time?
• Have you noticed any of these symptoms more?
• Do you have other health problems or medications you are taking?

If you are experiencing some of these symptoms, it would be appropriate to see a health professional to evaluate your symptoms and have your vitamin D levels measured.

I will now determine which department you should visit to have your symptoms evaluated.

I would recommend that you visit an Endocrinologist or Internal Medicine department to have your symptoms evaluated. I am not a real doctor and this is not a medical diagnosis.
