Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have seen all your reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity), USG reports, blood reports, and serum vitamin D reports. All reports are suggestive of being normal. Vitamin D level is also normal. Most probably, you are suffering from irritable bowel syndrome. Kindly follow the following advice:

  1. Stop Calcium and Vitamin D capsule.
  2. Avoid alcohol and smoking if you are a habitual.
  3. Reduce meat and oil products in your meals.
  4. Take a lot of water with green vegetables and salad in the diet.
  5. Increase legumes, pulses, and soybeans in your diet.

For more information, consult a medical gastroenterologist online

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
