I know this could be a result of lack of sun, but my skin can't really take a lot of sun. In fact, I just had a couple of moles removed. Nothing cancerous, luckily. I just have to be careful because I have a light complexion and blue eyes. I'm a near-vegetarian (I still eat fish) and still consume dairy, so I'm not sure what's up with this. Also, my white blood cell count is borderline low at 4,200, but no anemia. Yet.
Any ideas out there?

Yes, I think this is somewhat common. Two years ago, my vitamin D levels were at the same place. I had to take 50,000 iu pills for a while.
