Vitamin D Deficiency

My surgeon's office just called and said my Vitamin D levels are low and want me to take extra Vitamin D.     Which I will do as soon as I get home.     Do any of you know what the symptoms are for low Vitamin D?    I was just curious if maybe this is why I have been tired and a little down.

When vitamin D is very rigorously missing in a right amount the daily intake of diets it can lead to osteomalacia in adults and rickets in some group of children. Individuals who are suffering from lesser degrees or a very fewer amount of deficiency of this vitamin in their diet may have some thing like a burning sensation in the mouth and throat, loss of appetite, weight loss, diarrhea, insomnia and visual problems. Various symptoms for its deficiency may include rickets, improper mineralization of the body, skeletal deformities, soft bones, osteomalacia in grown up adults, muscle weakness, bone pain, concentration of a specific form of the vitamin in the blood, liver malfunctions, gallbladder malfunctions, intestinal disorders.

Thanks Melva.  

I have been extremely tired and down in the dumps for no apparent reason, and I was trying to figure out if they were connected.   I found something when I searched and it appears that they could be caused by a Vitamin D Deficiency.   I am going to start my supplement tonight and hope things improve soon.

I agree with all the side affects I found when I was reading it would cause extreme tiredness  especially with the deficiency itself and the insomnia.

April, I do take Vit D. I am glad you posted this because I too have been feeling dumpy, tired with no energy and didn't know why but now that I  read this, I have just remembered that I have been out of Vit D for about a week.  I did buy some yesterday and today I am going to double up on my dosage   Thanks

I have the liquid Vitamin D at home.   It is nasty, but I have been choking it down.   I ordered a sublingual today, hopefully, it will come in the next few days.    

My husband went to the doctor yesterday and they told him, he had Vitamin D deficiency.  They gave him the prescription for D2.  I tried to explain to him that he needed D3, but he refused to listen.   I will let him do what he wants.
