Hi all.
I get rechecked and tested for my vitamin D levels twice yearly.
Been driving around today with my convertible top down today, its a great way to keep the vitamin D topped up!!!
Mr sunshine on me . . .
Levels for vitamin D should read over 50 - mine were at its worst 23.5 under half the acceptable level.[felt so drained and weary at this time] Dont ever want to feel like that again! .
Now I do read a far healthier 53.6 had the vitaminD injections then daily calcichew vitaminD forte twice a day.
Am getting out and about in this great weather , plus am whizzing about in my open topped car keeping the vitaminD levels safetly upped...
On the topic at the minute - I did have to ask and insist that I was tested at my diabetes clinic , they reluctantly agreeed to do it as I was so insistant it must be done!
Was called in 2weeks later to be told I was way below the acceptable level. Put straight onto injections plus the tablet meds.
Took about 3 months to kick in and do the job , never looked back since, so was worth it !
