My PCP gave me a script for this and to be taken once a week. I told her I needed this daily and I got the look. 
I explained AGAIN the vitamin requirements and again the look. She is a RNY doc and I am her only DS patient. Other than finding a third PCP I want to know your thoughts.....................thanks,

Rx D3 is oil based...you might as well just dump them right in the toilet. Too bad...insurance doesn't cover the stuff we use.
I'm sorry you are having so many issues at once to deal with. I know sometimes you have to borrow energy from Peter to pay Paul.
You can use the script to get the cost of the vitamin back from any Flexible Spending Account you might have set up. If you can get a script for proteins and other specific vitamins, you can have a Flexible Spending Account set up for the money and take it from you pretax salary and reclaim it with receipts from the purchases.
The only money you are saving is that you don't pay income tax on that portion of your salary. And somtimes it does make it easier to pay for these things.

It is oil based and you won't absorb any of it. You need DRY D...probably 100THOUSAND units a day.
These are the vitamins you need to be taking and adjusting based on your labs:

What is your current vitamin regimine?
These are the labs you need (all of them):

If your pcp won't order your labs then you have to find another pcp who will. It is really non-negotiable.
