It's essential to approach your health with caution and ensure that you're receiving appropriate treatment. While i'm not a doctor, I can offer some general advice. Consult with another healthcare professional: since you have concerns about the prescribed medication and treatment plan, it's a good idea to seek a second opinion from another orthopedic doctor or a specialist in internal medicine. They can review your medical history, symptoms, and test results to provide an independent assessment and recommendations. Discuss treatment options: talk to the second healthcare professional about your symptoms, concerns, and the prescribed medications. They can provide insights into whether the prescribed medications are appropriate for your condition, taking into account your vitamin d deficiency and other factors. Explore alternative treatments: in addition to conventional medication, there may be alternative treatments or lifestyle changes that can help manage your symptoms and improve your overall health. This could include dietary changes, physical therapy, supplements, or other interventions. Address potential causes: while it's unclear if donating blood directly caused your symptoms, it's worth discussing with your healthcare provider to explore any potential links or underlying causes for your symptoms. Follow up regularly: regardless of the course of treatment you choose, it's essential to follow up regularly with your healthcare provider to monitor your progress, adjust treatment as needed, and address any new or worsening symptoms.
