Vitamin D Deficency~a list of symptoms and illnesses

[cricket26]

I have been struggling with vitamin d deficiency for several years, my initial diagnosis was in 2008 or 09 and I was in a lot of pain. At the initial diagnosis my number was 12...my doctor rechecked it last year and it was 19...my doctor advised me that I need to take at least 2000 units daily (I have been taking 5000) our goal is to be at 30-60.

the symptoms I am having are very much "MS like" and any advice for dealing with this would be helpful...I clicked on the link but it is not available anymore


thanks

I too have a vitamin D deficiency. I take vitamin D3 of 5000 IU dosage of one capsule a day from Nature Made Vitamins, which my doctor and pharmacist recommend as a D3 supplement. My levels are now sufficient at around 50.
Here is a link to Web MD that you can find information on deficient vitamin d3.

Hope this helps you with info. WEB MD Vitamin D3 Deficiency
