25-Hydroxy D3  level is 18.

Dr put me on50,000 once a week, is that enough.

D3 is the level you want to know, and it should be between 70-100, but I like it a little higher.

Sounds like you were RX'd Vit D2, typical RX would be 1-50K D2 for 8 weeks, as a DSer, we cant absorb D2, taking that RX will be worthless.  Since we malabsorb fat sol. vitamins the correct form is DRY Vit D3.  At your level I would suggest taking 100K dry VitD3 A DAY for 6 weeks and retest and make sure you test your PTH also.

If you have a specific question for me, PM me or I will not see it, as I don't check responses on the forums and don't have anything forwarded to my email.
