Hello Dr Abdullah,
Starting with your initial query: it would be consistent with an irritable bowel syndrome and more diarrhea-predominant IBS. Changes in diet do help by avoiding too much caffeine, alcohol, chocolate and fibre. But you must have a right amount of fibre and an appointment with a dietician will help. Drink plenty of water.
Your symptoms of headaches, eye sight problems need to be reviewed by an Ophthalmologist or Neurologist including the restless legs syndrome and several treatment options are available such as quinine etc.
Hypersensitivities to hay, dust or animal allergies need to be excluded due to the nature of your profession and skin prick test will help in determining your sensitivties.
Replete Vit D with supplements and check levels after 3 months.
