High Dose Vitamin D

Just in case anyone else gets the vitamin D prescribed before surgery - buy yourself some stool softener/laxative.  The vitamin D has constipated me and made me very dizzy.....It is a normal symptom but I wasn't aware of it....

It makes me feel the same way.  My dose was 10,000 IU once a week for 6 weeks.  What's yours?

50;000

Sorry 50,000 once a week for 8 weeks

That's what mine is as well

I had this dosage also. I guess I'm lucky that I never noticed any effects at all, other than feeling like I had more energy after a couple of weeks, which was probably just my imagination LOL.

Same for me!!! Lol no constipation, dizziness or negative suede effects whatsoever. But I DID notice a burst of energy after a while. Everything affects everyone differently!! 

The vitamin D didn't bother me, it was the Iron supplements, they ripped my stomach up and gave me major problems with my back side! My NUT said I could stop them if I felt I was getting enough protein  and once I did I went back to normal.

I'm wondering if this could be due to the brand or form?? Who knows! I can't recall the brand I took, but I purchased it at whole foods or sprouts (can't remember which but I know it was one if these stores) and it was the liquid version with the dropper. I have to start taking it again because on my latest labs, my Vit D level was a little low 😞
