Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
You are having severe vitamin d3 deficiency.
It takes almost 3 months to replenish vitamin D3 in body.
So you need to take tablet for atleast 3 months.
Vitamin B12 deficiency is almost always seen with vitamin D3 deficiency.
And your current symptoms, body jerking, are mostly due to vitamin B12 deficiency.
So also take vitamin B12 supplements along with vitamin D3 tablet.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
