-------------- Original message from ejohns9...@aol.com: --------------
My doctor had mine tested a year and a half ago just on a whim and mine was 8. He almost croaked but suggested I take 800 IU. I came home and read up on the problem and started taking 3,000 daily and had it retested in 3 months. It was still super low so he suggested I take 1,500 so I stated taking 5,000.It took one year to get it up to 30 which he thought was great but I know that's still way too low.I was shocked because we live on a farm and I have always been out doorsy.EJIn a message dated 11/9/2009 5:11:06 P.M.

My daily vitamin wasn't going to cut it during the flu season so following suggestions I ordered some for myself and smaller dosage for the kids.
I've been taking 2000IU daily for over 3 weeks. Today I got results from my physical blood test on Vit D and it was 25! The doctor called in a prescription for 50,000/week.
Does Vit D take time to build up or was I simply not taking enough do you think?
I also wanted to say thanks to those that had the Vit D discussion. I would not have thought to check otherwise.
