As people who know me will probably realise, I'm not a great one for taking any supplements. However, when I went to fill my prescription this morning I realised that my Doctor had prescribed Vitamin D. (I don't think she told me but she did put a calicium phosphorus ratio blood test on the script for next time and when I asked about that said something about Vit D, now I realise it will be to check the results!)
It comes as an ampoule of 100,000 IU every 2 months, which sounded a huge amount but is about 1670IU a day. What worries me is taking what seems to be such a lot at one time. Anyone with any experience? (bit worried about taking it in the next couple of days as travelling 900 km on Monday followed by lots of visits. I don't want any stomach upsets!)
