I guess my hydroxy vitamin d was 19.8 nmol/l. It was 43, 1.5 years ago, and I even attempted to get out in the sun more and take the odd supplement + minvitamin, so this was a real headscratcher for me.
Of course you cant get any vitamin d from the sun right now where im at, at least not very much anyway. I guess the uv index needs to hit 3 before you can hit full production, so I still have a couple more months at this latitude.
Formulated my own vitamin d plan, I dont think this is a wise idea. Low vitamin d is common in primary hyperparathyroidism.
I didnt want to do it, but I wont get help if I dont. So heres to hoping im not calcifying my body.
Doing about 10,000 units a day. 5000 in the morning with a multivitamin and usually a slice of cheese ( i guess fat helps to absorb it ). Then doing another 5000 and another multivitamin when I eat usually my only meal at dinner. Trying to make sure im eating nutritious meals in case I really was vitamin d deficient because then I should be low in other nutrients, but they keep checking things like my magnesium and manganese. Of course its fine. I was taking like 2-3 multivitamins at a time but they were giving me terrible pvc's. Had to stop. 1 seems to be ok.
Ive been doing this about a week now, and when the hell am I supposed to feel better. If anything my bones/joints hurt even worse :(.
