Last week I had the annual 'Well Woman' check up with complete blood work up. Two days later the nurse called because the results of my Vitamin D test were not good. Apparently an optimal minimal level is somewhere between 30 ng/ml - 50 ng/ml. Mine is 5 ng/ml. Now taking 50,000 IU capsule once a week for 8 weeks then a daily maintenance of 2,000 IU. Then we'll re-do the Vit. D to see where I'm at.
I know it hasn't helped that here in Virginia we have had a particularly gray winter so I have not been out much. That's about to change though! I plan to get tons of sun in the near future!
So I'm wondering if bones fusing need a lot of extra Vitamin D? I was already taking approx. 2,000 IU daily in three different supplements.
Has anyone else had this problem?
