The initial improvement I saw was on a 1000 IU 2x daily over-the-counter dosage from the doc. This was encouraging, so he gave me a 50K IU weekly prescription. I started to feel worse when taking this. Thought it was perhaps too much. Doc had me go back to the 2x daily 1000 IU. Unfortunately I never got back to that initial level of improvement. My bloodwork now shows that the Vit D level is within normal range (25-OH, Total: 47, D2: 35, D2: 12)
- Shooter 16y agoThe Vitamin D thing was one of the first things they discovered with me...but they started me right away on the 50K IU/week. As with you, the benefit lasted a short time and then I actually felt worse. It turned out that the Vitamin D thing was a red herring. Vitamin D is a hormone, and I had multiple endocrine issues from the viral and bacterial infections...
- savemylife 16y agoWow, that's really quite interesting that we both did initially better, then worse when on D. How did you get the viral/bacterial infection diagnosis? Was this lymne-related?
