[QUOTE="Totto, post: 505787, member: 91524"] Regarding vitamin D there are two or three conditions where you want to be careful with the dose you use, but for the rest 98% or so of us no adverse effects have been found on doses well above 10 000IU per day. The safe upper limit is 4000IU per day. This is the same as 100 [B]µg[/B] Many of us will need a lot more than that to get to decent levels. To test is a good idea but GPs can be reluctant and if they do test can be equally reluctant to prescribe proper doses. If you are deficient and so many of us are, particularly us with autoimmune diseases, the common dose of 800IU will make no difference whatsoever. Regarding ADs is my experience of Citalopram good. When I have been depressed they made a difference and I had no problems when stopping. This is me, we are all different and some people can experience terrible side effects with some ADs. I have been prescribed all kinds of AD when not depressed as a last resort for my GP who was convinced my fatigue and all the rest of my symptoms of hypothyroidism, probably including lack of outer part of eye brows would be cured by this assortment of drugs. Needless to say, I didn't take them. Kerze, things will be all right again. Hypothyroidism can do terrible things with us but eventually you will feel the benefit of meds although Levo didn't work very well for me but it does for many. [/QUOTE]
