Hi All -

I have a few vitamin questions......

I think I have been taking the wrong Vitamin D - I take a gel cap - I have heard folks talking about dry vitamin D - I am assuming that I am not taking the right type.......:-(

I have had some issues with gross nausea and foaming when I take my multi and Calcium....... I am thinking that chewables would work better?  I am wondering if anyone has had any good luck with any over the counter vitamins that I could get at either Walmart/ CVS/ Walgreen's?  I also struggle with the calcium - I used to take Calcium Carbonate (wrong kind - we should have citrate) but they gave me such horrendous gas I thought I was having a heart attack and had to go to the ER.

I also just posted about my buzzing Left foot - I am wondering if this could be a symptom of a vitamin deficency?

My One Year follow up was just cancelled so I will have to re-schedule that for later in the month ....

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

The foot thing could possibly be a B12, thiamine, or copper deficiency, but that normally is more a numbness or tingling like when your feet are falling asleep, and normally is in both hands and both feet.  My guess would be something like a pinched nerve, but I'd see a doctor about it.
