How low is everyone's vitamin D?

Many of us were found to be vitamin D deficient. I was put on a prescription Vitamin D regimen of 50,000 IU weekly for about 2 months. I am now in the low normal range and take approx. 2000 IU daily.

I never knew it cause cognitive problems. I did know a deficiency can add to achiness, muscle spasms and tingling.

Did your doc put you on vitamin D therapy?

I was an 8 a few years ago. I'm on 100,000 iud a week and just barely in the normal range.

My vitamin D level was low, but it is very common in Pittsburgh for it to be. We have a lot less sunshine than other areas, and are right behind Seattle in rain.

Jasonmom my vitamin D was rechecked lately and it was 43 after high vitamin D supplements. So my Dr. Wanted me to take a little more. I live in Alaska so it's a very common to have low vitamin D. Just remember if you take a high supplement that it gets monitored by a Dr. I was on a high vitamin D supplement and I didn't get mine checked. So I ended up in the hospital with kidney stones. Mine was 4 times the level it should of been. So theni had to have surgery to remove the kidney stone.

mine was in the twenties. If I take more than 1000 iu a day it upsets my stomach. I forget to take it because of cognition issues.
