I have weakness, fatigue, dizziness, cold intolerance, raynauds, neuropathy, whole body aches and pains, etc...I am not sure if it is all caused by the vitamin D deficiency. I have several other secondary diseases and hormonal imbalances. I take 2,000 IU of vitamin D daily, but the last time my levels were checked (two months after taking it,) they were still below normal. I did not take any vitamins, supplements, or meds for about two months when I was focused entirely on my Daddy and his health. I am now trying to get back into the habit of taking the vitamin D again. I experienced a lot more aches and pains when I was off the vitamin D. I notice my teeth also hurt when I don't take my vitamin D. I also fall down more often. I also have hypercalcemia, so that could be causing it as well. Apparently, my vitamin D deficiency, also called osteomalacia, caused my osteopenia. I do not know how long I have had osteomalacia or osteopenia. I have low single-digit vitamin D levels, the range is 20-100. I have been told that I have severe vitamin D deficiency. |
