I found out about my severe vitamin D deficiency in March and in two months my levels went upto 33 ng from 7. I am aiming for 55ng.I started with 4K IU of d3 then went on to 10k IU along with magnesium, fish oil,Vit k2. It was life changing! I also had to correct my severe B12 and iron deficiency with shots and infusions respectively.I took a zinc + b complex , fish oil capsule too. I also made some dietary changes by limiting dairy, gluten and sugar. I am a different person now. I used to have extreme hair fall, fatigue, drowsiness, dizziness, poor balance, bone pain, weak teeth, numbness in my toes, lack of concentration , poor memory, depression, anxiety and brain fog. My career, social life, relationships everything was suffering for so many years. I feel like over 75% of my problems are gone. It didn’t take too long, only a few months for this entire transformation. Please do not ignore nutritional deficiencies . I hope this helps people 🙏🏼
brother plz tell me something about it my vitamin d level is 10.1 I checked it on 10 feb 2021.it’s beeen 3 weeks I have taken 200,000 IU injection in these 3 weeks but there is no improvement at all!.How much time it will take to recover ??
I am vitamin d deficient and still suffering from brain fog.... Taking supplements for 3 months... All problems has been solved except severe brain fog and headache like tightening the nerve in brain
I was told by my primary care physician that there is no link with depression and low vitamin d. She insisted that I try psychiatric treatment even though my vitamin d levels were at a 6. It amazes me how ill informed these doctors really are. They are trained to push meds...
I'm dealing with vitamin D deficiency and the road to recovery is LONG! Three months ago my D3OH was at 8.3 ng/mL and I could barely walk. The exhaustion, brain fog, and pain are no joke. I hope your recovery continues and things get better!!!
Thank you Ashleigh! I understand how you feel. I was at that painful point during this journey. I'm glad to report that I'm much better. I have some pains here and fluctuations here and there, but nothing like when things first began. Continue taking it day by day and don't focus on the time, only focus on treating yourself the best each day, eating right, stressing less, focusing on positivity, taking your vitamins, and of course getting as much natural sunshine as you can. Wishing you a full recovery soon and if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. Have a beautiful day! ☀️
Ashleigh Riegler mine was 8.8. I never told anyone how bad I felt. I was also diagnosed with sleep apnea. Things were hard. When I finally found out what was wrong by my doctor I broke down and cried. It was finally an explanation as to my secret pain. Thank you for sharing.

did you ever have severe arm pain like upper arms both of them for me I feel like I'm about to pulls muscle every time I move them certain ways. deep aches also. thank you God bless you and all who read this. remember Jesus took up our pain and bore our suffering to the cross we need to receive our healing by His stripes we were healed. Praying for you and all on this. God bless indeed
Hi Unique Boutique! Thank you for commenting and God Bless you too! I didn't have arm pain, but I did have severe back and chest pains. Even now, in my upper back, it often feels like pulling or a catch in it, very achy! I notice that when my iron is low, I feel this way and I'm sure the vitamin D deficiency had lots to do with it too. I'm praying for you as well that your arm pain goes away completely. Wishing you the best! ☀️
Update: it's been about 10 months now and my overall level is a 40. My new DR saying I should be in between 50 to 80. A lot of my issues are gone...ie.. muscle spasms and random muscle twitching. The heart palpitations have stopped...thank God...I still am having lower back pain and random leg pain that could be due to muscle tightness. I got checked with blood and urine for multiple test to include HIV, cancer, arthritis etc...everything came back negative so this D deficiency is my only point of reference for pain. I'm on my second dose of 50k vitamin D weekly. I did find out my Iron levels were high. So I am also cutting back on the red meat. It's a slow grind to recovery so just stick with the plan.
Girl! Me too! I know exactly how you feel. Im constantly tired, im tired of being tired. I feel anxious snd depressed. Its awful. Yup, my blood test shows D deficiency!
I hope you feel better soon! What I noticed is I feel better when I stick to a regimen of taking my vitamin D supplements, a multivitamin with K2, staying hydrated and getting plenty of sunshine whenever I can. I took some time, but I'm finally on the better end of things. Also, have your iron checked, I believe there is a correlation between low vitamin D and iron deficiency, once I was diagnosed with anemia and given iron infusions, that was a real game changer for me. I finally have energy again and my anxiety & depression almost went completely away. Keep me posted with your progress, and have a awesome day! ☀️
+Niche Mangui right now I use a protein shampoo and conditioner and keep it braided up under a wig because that's the best way I can manage it right now. but u should look into what you should do because it sounds as if you're losing a lot of hair. everyone experience different outbreaks and symptoms and yours is hair. I'm mostly experiencing chills and weakness. :(
Yes, I experienced a lot of shedding, breakage & hair thinning/loss too. But, I'm anemic also. I wear protective styles & low manipulation hairstyles, to give my hair a break. I figure I'll get my thickness back once my body balances out. But I'm focused on my diet and the rest will fall into place.
Very important video. So many Americans suffer from vitamin D deficiency. People with darker skin pigmentation are even more susceptible to this deficiency.
Thank you! It a wonder that it's not discussed & taught about more than what it is. Many of us are learning the hard way. It certainly should be tested for more regularly, especially for darker toned people living in colder regions.
I understand I just started healing from vitamin deficiency but I went like this for a couple of years I have PCOS so I comes from that too ...I live in Florida though so I am getting out as much as possible now . I am taking 50,000 IUS . Thank you for sharing your story.
Thanks for commenting. Yes, getting out in the sun is the best thing. And, taking the 50,000iu is the fast track to feeling better. Wishing you a speedy recovery! ☀️
It's so weird, well if you live in Florida you can make vitamin D from the sun all year long, however the society today may not allow us to be able to go outside at the time when vitamin D is able to being produced, which is about 11-14am
Exactly! The way we are always indoors at the peak hours, at work, school, etc.. It really has an effect on our health. Society and the way we do things today, is so not conducive to our health. There is no consideration for geographical location and climate, when it comes to health and well being. Great observation.
a month ago i feel anxious and depression so much. i just dont know why. i watched motivation videos to get over it but nothing change. and your video just pop up in my recommended. so happy to know that. just order d3 5000 iu from amazon. sorry english is not my first language
Hi Me Go with! Thanks for commenting! I'm happy that my video was of some comfort to you. I hope that get relief from the vitamins your ordered and that you have a speedy recovery! ☀️
Thanks for asking! I am much better. I am still bothered by my iron deficiency anemia and am working to keep my levels up. But otherwise I’m the best I’ve been in years! I found that having a better diet. Getting more sunshine and striving to be healthier overall has really helped me. These defici mixes forced me to take better care of myself. That is Key! 🔑☀️
I just found out today that my levels were 13 ng/ml. for the past few months, I have been extremely tired and exhausted even when I get a decent amount of sleep. My knees started hurting, then my back, then my legs felt too "heavy"? for me to walk even though I am very skinny. I couldn't focus on my workouts because the pain was so bad, every time I felt pain in the gym, I'd think I injured myself. The doctor just prescirbed me 10,000 IU daily, I hope it works.
+Maria Adams, I'm wishing you a speedy recovery. I can totally relate. I'm just beginning to exercise with a bit of ease. Before I couldn't at all, due to the pain and for me very intense shortness of breath. All I can suggest is to be consistent with your regimen, eat properly, drink water, get lots of rest and try to stress as little as possible. I've never taken 10,000iu, but I've heard that amount can mess with your sleep, so just keep watch on how you feel while taking that amount. I hope you feel better very soon. ☀️
+T Hughes I totally understand how you feel. It is definitely not a laughing matter. It effects our bodies in different ways, but muscular skeletal pain/harm is definitely a result. What did your doctor Rx for you? Most likely they will Rx D2 50,000iu (the little green pills), but D3 is better for our bodies. Along with getting as much direct sun exposure as you can, if you can depending on where you live. Keep me posted with your progress & if you have any questions about my journey don't hesitate to ask. Feel better ☀️

Hey indeed - just wanted to know... Did you ever have racing thoughts and feel restless? Looking forward to your next vid! I'm going to get a vit d test done today so keep me in your prayers 🙏🏾
+Ajcooljay I'm happy your getting tested today. Prayers up! You'll be just fine, even if the levels are low, now you know what to do to correct them, and where to find information from others like me who've shared the same experience. Yes, I had racing thoughts, bad thoughts, complete restlessness especially while trying to sleep. My body felt 100% totally out of whack, which is why I knew something was completely wrong because I was so not like my self. Also see if they can check your Magnesium, Iron & B-12 levels too! Usually when one thing is deficient, there are other deficiencies too because those vitamins work together & need/use each other in a way. Let me know what happens today! 👍🏾
+Indeed Love Awww thanks indeed, it's a blessing to be able to reach you on this platform. The racing thoughts are horrible, it's like you have visions of you harming yourself or being harmed (not that you would) , or like something bad is going to happen and then the adrenaline goes etc Like your brain is always looking for worst case scenario then your brain gets tired from all the overthinking lol. I've not had a drink in while but can feel the vodka bottle will come out tonight. The GP here didn't even believe that depression/anxiety etc are linked with Vit d def, none of them really do. I was just glad to get my blood forms. I should find out results in a week.
Funny thing is that I had no intentions of doing a video on vitamin d deficiency. I was just feeling so crappy and at home from work so long, that I had to find something to do with myself. One of my friends whom is experiencing the deficiency too, suggested I make a video, and I did. Now to see that it's helping someone, is awesome. Outside of that, remember there is so much going on in the world, that being depressed & anxious is a by product of life sometime. Don't pull out the vodka, lol. Just breathe and if you journal try writing out your feelings, good or bad. Maybe write how you would like to feel, and write out some steps on how you could get to that point. Doesn't have to be perfect at all. And above all things, pray and relax. Healing from any deficiency takes planning and action. I've been going through this for over a year, figuring out much of it on my own. But i'm still here & I'm MUCH much better! You will be too. Everyone has thoughts they don't want to have, when they come, know what it is, just a thought then, choose to move past it. I really hope this helps...
+Indeed Love when they....? It is but it's just that when there's nothing to be depressed or anxious about it's even worse. I just want to get back to my normal self, even 50% of what I was then I'll be happy. How's your friend now that's going through it?
He's almost fully recovered! He's now down to taking a maintenance dose of of 1000iu per day. His levels bounced back after 2-3 months of supplementing, altering his diet and getting back on a daily exercise regimen. He also takes B complex & Magnesium to help him with his anxiety & depression he was suffering after loosing his mom & a few close friends. He's doing very well now. Thanks for asking. Yeah, many times Depression is a by product of deficiency(s), and our bodies way of saying we need a lifestyle & nutrition change. Stay strong & keep pressing on.
Hey! there, I hope you recovered completely by now. Even I am a vitamin D3 deficient. It was 8.8 when checked 3 months ago. I have been taking Supplements (Vitamin D3 60000 IU per week ). My questions are 1) How long does it take to get recovered completely? 2) How long did it take for you to recover? 3) What was your vitamin D3 level when checked for the first time? 4) I have muscle tightness and pain when I wake up in the morning.. Have you experienced the same ever? 5) Could you please name the supplements that you have been taking. Your answers are really appreciable. Thank you.
Sandesh Kulal, Thanks for commenting! To answer your questions... 1) The time varies from person to person for numerous reasons. Environmental factors, like how much sunshine a person is able to get. If they are supplementing, then it can still vary for some people I know personally, it took them 8-16 weeks to see significant changes and be considered in the upper number (30's, 40's 50's vitamin D levels). For others like myself, who are sensitive to the supplements, it's taken me longer because I haven't been consistent with taking the supplements ( I take them for a few weeks, take a break, then start again). Also, I live in a climate which is very cloudy most days and far from the equator, so all of these things play a role in recovery. 2) My levels have fluctuated, like I've mentioned, due to where I live and the amount of sun exposure I get, and my issue with supplementing with high dosages. Also, I'm dealing with an anemia issue as well, so I'm still healing overall. 3) My first levels were 9, which is very low. At one point last summer I got my levels around 30, my doctor said 40's, but I don't remember that happening. Then over the winter my levels dropped quickly, as I was having issues supplementing and the winter was long and harsh. So my levels dropped back to 18, and I'm currently working on them again. I've been supplementing daily with 5,000iu for the past month and I can feel a difference. However, I'm also feeling the issues that makes me take those breaks, severe chest pain, which could be associated with my anemia. 4) Yes I feel terrible in the mornings, lots of body aches, pain in my upper left chest area, lots of bones crackling sounds, and just an overall crappy feeling. This usually happens when my level are super low, or when I have too much supplements in my body, but again it could also be exasperated by my anemia, which comes with it's own additional symptoms. 5) Currently I take Natrol. 5,000iu vitamin D3, over the counter that I pick up at The Vitamin Shoppe. I also sometimes use a liquid vitamin D3 in the drop form. However, last time I visited the ER, I was told to look into a vitamin D injection, but I'd have to research that and find out more info before considering it. I hope this helps! You're welcome. ☀️
Hallelujah 123, Hi & Thanks for commenting! I've had gastric issues, but not for sure if they are connected to low vitamin D, I have gerd (acid reflux). I did experience extreme shortness of breath, which was connected to low iron, I found that was anemic and my hemoglobin/ferritin levels were very low. I felt horrible, extreme fatigue, brain fog, shakiness; inability to workout, climb stairs, etc... it was very bad. Be sure to get your iron levels, thyroid, and electrolytes checked, as any of those things could also make you feel the symptoms you've described. Keep me posted! Feel better. ☀️
@@indeedlove hey thanks so much! Doesn't the acid reflux cause shortness of breath by the way ? Because there is constant pressure on the upper stomach
Hey again Sage! I'm glad to hear that the supplements are making you feel better and that you are seeing progress! I'm wishing you a speedy recovery! ☀️
I'm recovering from it as we speak. my diet has been awful. I am on supplements my doctor prescribed to me. I still dealing with depression and on medication. I also had the same symptoms, I felt as if the blood was leaving my body. I need to eat right and exercise
Thanks for commenting. Yes, it can be hard to create new habits, but trust that you will feel better. I found out that I was anemic in addition, so if you can get that checked out too. Iron anemia, b-12, magnesium deficiency, vit d, all go hand in hand, so have those things checked if you can as well. My depression has lifted significantly, now I'm addressing all the health issues. Wishing you a speedy recovery, keep me posted with your progress!
+Indeed Love I had blood work done almost 4 weeks ago and they said everything came back wonderul, except I had a vitamin d deficiency. I know my bones ache in my hands and sometimes my legs, but I believe it's because I do not exercise or eat right. I will start fresh tomorrow because I'm tired of feeling this way, and I have yet to go outside to get some sun.
Bone aches were the worst!! Smh. My back and legs hurt to where I couldn't sleep some nights. I'm still recovering from that too. When I changed my diet I started drinking more water, then cut out caffeine & processed food as much as possible. I'm getting my workout on this summer, since my bones can finally handle it. I'll be posting videos on fitness, very soon... I'm glad your blood work is great & yes get all the sun you can and enjoy it!
+Indeed Love I also am struggling to get a good night's rest. I'm in Ned as we speak. my back aches so badly, my hips, and my chest muscles ache very bad. I was feeling great 2 weeks ago after I found out I was deficient, then all of a sudden I crashed. I wouldn't imagine I would be going through this, but I'm glad I can relate to you because it feels as if you're wasting away, like you're going to die any moment. I have changed my diet, I went for a walk, and I want to recover over night, but I know that won't happen. :(
Gosh, I'm sorry your going through it. I felt the same way. Though you might feel as if you are going to die, you are not. Just remind yourself that. It got very scary for me too, I felt the same way, but you will get better, trust me I've been there. It does require a lot of rest, mentally, physically & emotionally. Don't rush yourself to get better, just focus on the changes your making and take them in stride. You will get better. Get a few hours in the sun daily if you can, that did help me. And, be sure to take your vit D supplement. I had to get back on 50,000 iu because my progress was too slow doing it my way. I'm on my 4th week of the 50,000 and can feel a difference in my body. Pain is almost completely gone, with the exception of my back pain. Keep me posted... and meanwhile rest up.
I'm having chest pains and nerve pain since 2 months. I was absolutely fine and when one day started having chest pain... It scares me a lot... I have done my ECG echocardiogram endoscopy and what not... Doctor said my heart was fine.... All the doctors are saying that I have in society and anxiety is causing me e these weird pains all over my body and specially my chest pain.. somewhat I was not ready to believe them... I I'm having extremely dry lips... It's sometimes even bleed when the skin comes off, kind of dry skin. And people tell me that I looked very unwell... I got my vitamin test done.... And my vitamin d level is 12.... Dr never asked me for a bit test but can my chest pain and other pain all around my body and specially my wrist and my feet can be a sign of vitamin d deficiency... Can vitamin d deficiency at a level of 12 be so severe
Did you get the pins needles (burning) in your feet? I just found out my d levels are 13. I am suffering so much I was seriously considering suicide. I never imagined a deficiency in a stinkin vitamin could make you want to die. This needs to be talked about more. I also have this excruciating pain in my chest. Cant move or touch it :/
Hello Olivia! I am so sorry I am just seeing this! Firstly, If you or anyone else reading this ever feel suicidal, please contact 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. I hope that you are feeling better by the time you read this. You are not alone and although this deficiency feels terrible at times, it is also fairly easy to heal from. It just takes time, supplementation, getting as much sunshine as possible, and patience. My levels were 9 and I was able to get them up to 60 and felt much better. I'm currently at 17 because I didn't get enough sunshine this year, and I didn't stay on track with my supplementation. If you need to talk you can reach me here or on my IG @loveyinthemix. I truly hope you are well, please let us know in the comments. ☀️❤️
I love you for this...I've had these symptoms and are still having them...I found out I was lv 19....I'm lv 33 now and I'm still in pain...back body and leg pain...muscle twitches and tinglining....I can't wait for this nightmare to be over...how long did it take u to recover? I'm going on 7 months since I found out...
M H, Thank you! I've been up and down over the years with my numbers, since I live in a very cloud dense climate with little sun all year long. My levels have fluctuated between 9 & 60 (supposedly) according to my last vit d test. Due to my environment, I don't think that I'll ever full recover or have stable levels until I relocate to somewhere sunnier. Thanks for commenting and watching. Have an awesome day! ☀️
@@tejashreeayre418 I have never had internal shaking. For me what I had and have occasionally still is the pain or random ache in my armpit area. Idk if that had anything to do with ransom muscle pain and tightness. I also had and still have a pain in my lower back that radiates into my groin area...it freaked me out for a long time. It gave me sciatica like symptoms down my inner thighs and even testicle pain. Idk why but alp of my muscles became super tight and would hurt and randomly twitch. I spent over a K to try to see if anything else was wrong. All my test came back negative. This all started about 10 months ago now...It's a slow grind uphill when it comes to recovery.

@@MHSenju3000 hey bro , I am having same symptoms like you, my vit d is #19 , I am having issues since 4-5 months , totally depressed and extreme fatigue and digestive issue, I am very much afraid that I might have cancer , what tests were done by you to rule out cancer? Please share it I am very much in depression
Better, yes. But, completely better... not at all. Lots of up and then down days. I really had no clue that I'd still be dealing with any of this. I truly can't wait until its over. I have lots of upper and mid back pain, that could be related to a fall I took, but also seems closely related to my anemia. The vitamin D deficiency is better, but I still get very shaky at times, still deal with the anxiety, body aches, palpitations etc... just not as severely as before. Progress, but not completely healed yet. Yes I agree, super irritating...
Indeed's World Cool and good news that you are getting closer..Well it looks like it will be a little while longer for me as well..I got good days and bad days sounding like Rice Krispies and what not with my bones sometimes and that aching..I tell ya this stuff is weird to not be self inflicted..
Lol @ Rice Krispies! Yes, definitely weird to say the least. I go from working out one day, followed by 2-3 days painfully recovering from a simple 30min workout. Not cool. Overall it's just really making me reflect on all the things I used to do with ease, that I guess I took for granted. I swear once this is all over I'm doing everything I couldn't do during this illness. So if you see me on here skydiving or something crazy, you'll know I'm back at 100% lol. Currently I'm trying to do something creative and put some sort of hip hop spin on all of this health stuff. I've been longing to get back into my element and this thing has really slowed me down... Everyday is one day closer tho, so we gotta stay positive. We will beat this thing, eventually...
Indeed's World Haha!...Yea you do think about what was taken for granted and I haven't been to the gym in a lil minute ..My bones seem a little to brittle to be pumping weights and I do things cautiously cuz my bones seem like they will break if I push them to hard..I ain't trying to be drawn out but did you ever experience fragility with your bones like if you push them hard sumthin will break ? And do you take anything for the pain and what is it cuz it is annoying to me especially when it rains it hurts more..
I know what you're talking about. I did experience fragility, I felt so weak throughout this entire experience. My bones crackle a lot too. I actually broke my arm summer before last, I fell off my son's skateboard and broke my arm trying to catch myself. Thing is it was more like a little slip, I hit my arm and had no clue it was broken, it just felt funny. I've been a very rough and tumble mom, so I couldn't believe that little bump actually broke it. That's just how weak my bones were, this was just before finding out that I was vit d deficient. I was feeling bad, but didn't know what was happening to my body, so I thought it was all in my head. My neck/shoulder/upper back is what gives me the most problems, my spine snaps all day long like I'm doing the Rebbie Jackson centipede all day, lol. Oh and I can definitely tell when it's about to rain... smh...
Hi Paily. Sorry to hear that you were feeling so badly. I hope that you are feeling better by now. I believe the best thing I've done to heal, is to stick to a regimen of taking my vitamins, eating a better diet, and getting as much natural sunshine as possible. I hope this helps☀️
hi. first time seeing your video. thanks. What type of bone issue did you have to deal with. I too just found out I'm extremely deficient in vitamin D.. what has been your treatment
+Mama Fylees I was having issues walking, my right knee was a ton of pain and I didn't understand why. That progressed to where I just felt weak and in pain all throughout my body. Months later I woke up and couldn't tie my shoes, I was diagnosed with 5 slightly bulging disk in my thoracic area of my back. Was put on a round of steroids for a week or so. Currently I feel much better, but am still healing. My treatment, I got a complete head to toe check up and every test imaginable, everything came back normal except low electrolytes, vitamin d and iron anemia. I've since changed my diet away from many processed foods, to more natural. I take a quality multivitamin, which has vitamin D3, K2, magnesium, and a host of other things. I drink much more water, and now that I'm feeling stronger, am merging back into more exercise. Originally for the bone pain I was sent to a physical therapist, and the hugest thing I did to get better was allow myself to rest and get as much natural sun as I could, which is really hard in this area where I live. I took 6 months off from work because it was really that bad. But over time, I've healed. And though I still have up and down days, it's nothing like before. I still have a ways to go though....
Indeed Love yes. you've been through a lot. my dc put me on Vitamin D 2 but I heard from RUclips D 3 is much better absorbed into the body. can you tell me where I can get D 3 from
D3 is much better and the one we should use. I purchased mine at The Vitamin Shoppe, but I am about to switch to Raw D3 and give that a try. It is supposed to be a more natural, higher quality, better absorbed vitamin D. I currently get about 500ius of my D3 in my multivitamin, then I take a separate 2,000iu. You should be able to find a good quality D3 at any health food store, vitamin store or even in some grocery stores that sell organic and good quality foods. I hope this helps :)
brother plz tell me something about it my vitamin d level is 10.1 I checked it on 10 feb 2021.it’s beeen 3 weeks I have taken 200,000 IU injection in these 3 weeks but there is no improvement at all!.How much time it will take to recover ??
Sister I did mistake I done my bloodwork on 10th January my d3 level was 10.5ngml. Then Dr prescribed me 60k iu for 4 weeks I took 3 tablets of 60kiu and again I did bloodwork on 30th January my level was on 86.00ng/ml. Then I stop medication because I thought it will reach on toxicity level so I got scared and i stop medication for 15 days then I checked again my d3 level was at 76.00ng/ml. I got lots of confusion what should I do.. do I stop medication or continue Because when I used to talk about my symptoms to the doctor they just simply said that you had (anxiety) they don't understand my symptoms. I already meet almost 23 doctors Please help me 🙏🙏🙏how to start madication with proper guidance. I'm from india and need help sister
I'm not a doctor so I can't specifically say what you should do. What helped me was getting as much sunshine as possible, changing my diet to a healthier one, taking my supplements (8 weeks of 50,000 is when I first saw decent results), addressing my iron anemia, B12, magnesium and potassium deficiencies. And reducing stress, I had to make myself stop worrying about my illness and do the action to heal. I got my bloodwork done to see what all I was deficient in, then I worked on healing those things. I hope this helps☀️
@@lawncrew9886 Yes daily after wakeup in the morning it's continues. And fainting like states nervous anxious sweating dizziness. heavy head, headache, a urge to passout. tingling, numbness, shortness of breath all these. And plz tell what is your symptoms ?
Hello, i have my vitamin d at 9.8. How much time do you think will take to heal. I have been put on 60000UI of vitamin D-3 on weekly basis by my Doctor. I am whitish brown in colour, age 23 and have started going out in the sun as well.
+GauravLodha Hi! I personally can't give you an estimate on how long it takes, because everyone's body is different. My friend was deficient at a level 9, he is dark complexion, he took 50,000iu for around 5-6 months and his levels reached just above 50 in that amount of time. Unlike me, he was able to tolerate the high dosage of vitamin D, and his work/life schedule is way different from mine. It has taken me much longer just to reach a level 25, because I had a very hard time with the larger doses and may have other absorption issues which i am in process of being checked for. So it just depends. Best thing to do is stick to your regimen, then get checked periodically by your doctor. And of course get as much sunshine as you can like you have been doing. Hope this helps! Have a beautiful day ☀️
Indeed Love thankyou so much! I forgot to mention that my doctor gave me an injection of 300000UI, which he will give me for two more months. I have already strted feeling better. Do you think i can get better in 2-3 weeks?
I'm glad that you are feeling better. Again, I can't say how long it will take, that is up to your body. But you seem like you are on the path to recovery and that's a good thing. If you do get better in 2-3 weeks, let me know, because then I may need to stop what I am doing and do what you are doing! 😊 Keep me posted with your progress!
Hi Ameen Kidwai! Finding out if you can take pain killers is something you should discuss with your doctor. I know that there is a lot of bone and muscle pain associated with this deficiency as I have experienced lots of pain myself. At a point I was prescribed muscle relaxers, but I'm not one for taking lots of medication, so I barely used the relaxants. I was prescribed them by my doctor, so you should definitely check with your GP to see what would work best in alleviating your pain. I hope this helps, and I hope that you feel better soon.☀️
@@indeedlove many thanks for you response. my Vitamin D level is 28 and also have vitamins B12 deficiency. could you please let me know how much time it will take for recovery.
@@ameenkidwai9972 just wondering how your recovery is coming along? My vitamin d just tested at 28 and I’ve been in so much pain, poor mobility, exhaustion, etc. Started supplements 10 days ago and curious how long it takes to feel better.
@@rahulsolanky5637 take proper medicines for vitamin D 3 as per your reports. If there is pain in your muscles and bones you can take pain killer as per adviced by your dr. It will take minimum 1 month for the recovery of vitamin D and you will feel better hopefully.
Hello Plant Seed! Yes, I definitely had my bouts of insomnia, especially when I was supplementing with the vitamin D. Vitamin D is a hormone that can cause sleep issues. When I reduced my dosages, my sleep improved. ☀️
Funny thing is the deficiency causes sleep issues and taking too much of the supplement causes insomnia as well. It’s a double edged sword. Finding balance is key 🔑
I had no symptoms of vitamin D, had a blood test the doctor put me on 40,000iu once a week for 7 weeks, my levels were 35.2. By the 2nd and 3rd week I had bone pain in every joint, my blood pressure went through the roof, palpations hospitalized twice and now been referred to cardio. I stopped vitamin D from the advice of health professionals and now 6 weeks later, I have knee pain and wrist pain also ankle pain. I read that it could take weeks or months to get back to where they were? Does anyone have experience with this please I'm just turned 39 years my body heals well generally?
The Foto Lady you probably were magnesium deficient because large doses of Vit D will deplete your magnesium levels quickly. You have to take both when taking Vit D ........most Doctors don’t know this I hope that helps and take care
Vitamin d3 needs vitamin K2 mk7 and magnesium glycinate with it . Otherwise it won't work properly . Regular intervals blood checkup is also must for this . Try to manage your vitamin d level in between 50 to 80 . 100 is its upper limit . So don't cross it .if your blood pressure is high . Try to lower your sodium intake and try to cut caffeine completely . do not consume tea and coffee or dark chocolate till your cortisol level comes to normal . You can try Ashwagandha also for it .
Indeed's World yes, you definitely should! My vitamin D levels were always low, and the only thing that worked for me was the vitamin D3 by garden of life. My levels went from 16 to 39 after 2 weeks of taking it. Hope it works for you and good luck! :)
+lilly smith Wow really! Did it make you shaky, anxious or have insomnia at all? Some of the higher doses does that to me, but 16 to 39 is impressive. I will definitely give this a try! Thanks again!
Indeed's World nope, didn’t experience anything like that, I think because it is a food based vitamin so your body responds to it better. Hope you get the same results as I did! Good luck :)
Hi Aaisha! Thanks for commenting. There is some vitamin D in milk, but not nearly enough that we need. You may want to look into a good supplement. Hope this helps! Have a beautiful day! ☀️
I found out about my severe vitamin D deficiency in March and in two months my levels went upto 33 ng from 7. I am aiming for 55ng.I started with 4K IU of d3 then went on to 10k IU along with magnesium, fish oil,Vit k2. It was life changing! I also had to correct my severe B12 and iron deficiency with shots and infusions respectively.I took a zinc + b complex , fish oil capsule too. I also made some dietary changes by limiting dairy, gluten and sugar. I am a different person now. I used to have extreme hair fall, fatigue, drowsiness, dizziness, poor balance, bone pain, weak teeth, numbness in my toes, lack of concentration , poor memory, depression, anxiety and brain fog. My career, social life, relationships everything was suffering for so many years. I feel like over 75% of my problems are gone. It didn’t take too long, only a few months for this entire transformation. Please do not ignore nutritional deficiencies . I hope this helps people 🙏🏼

I wonder how many people are sent to therapy for a vitamin D deficiency. I think all mental health workers should be aware of this
I was told by my primary care physician that there is no link with depression and low vitamin d. She insisted that I try psychiatric treatment even though my vitamin d levels were at a 6. It amazes me how ill informed these doctors really are. They are trained to push meds...

I'm dealing with vitamin D deficiency and the road to recovery is LONG! Three months ago my D3OH was at 8.3 ng/mL and I could barely walk. The exhaustion, brain fog, and pain are no joke. I hope your recovery continues and things get better!!!
Thank you Ashleigh! I understand how you feel. I was at that painful point during this journey. I'm glad to report that I'm much better. I have some pains here and fluctuations here and there, but nothing like when things first began. Continue taking it day by day and don't focus on the time, only focus on treating yourself the best each day, eating right, stressing less, focusing on positivity, taking your vitamins, and of course getting as much natural sunshine as you can. Wishing you a full recovery soon and if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. Have a beautiful day! ☀️
Ashleigh Riegler hi how did your brain fog disappear
Ashleigh Riegler mine was 8.8. I never told anyone how bad I felt. I was also diagnosed with sleep apnea. Things were hard. When I finally found out what was wrong by my doctor I broke down and cried. It was finally an explanation as to my secret pain. Thank you for sharing.

did you ever have severe arm pain like upper arms both of them for me I feel like I'm about to pulls muscle every time I move them certain ways. deep aches also. thank you God bless you and all who read this. remember Jesus took up our pain and bore our suffering to the cross we need to receive our healing by His stripes we were healed. Praying for you and all on this. God bless indeed
Hi Unique Boutique! Thank you for commenting and God Bless you too! I didn't have arm pain, but I did have severe back and chest pains. Even now, in my upper back, it often feels like pulling or a catch in it, very achy! I notice that when my iron is low, I feel this way and I'm sure the vitamin D deficiency had lots to do with it too. I'm praying for you as well that your arm pain goes away completely. Wishing you the best! ☀️
Update: it's been about 10 months now and my overall level is a 40. My new DR saying I should be in between 50 to 80. A lot of my issues are gone...ie.. muscle spasms and random muscle twitching. The heart palpitations have stopped...thank God...I still am having lower back pain and random leg pain that could be due to muscle tightness. I got checked with blood and urine for multiple test to include HIV, cancer, arthritis etc...everything came back negative so this D deficiency is my only point of reference for pain. I'm on my second dose of 50k vitamin D weekly. I did find out my Iron levels were high. So I am also cutting back on the red meat. It's a slow grind to recovery so just stick with the plan.
Hi M H! Thanks for the update, idk how I didn’t see this earlier. Glad to hear your progressing with your recovery! How are you feeling now?
Does it make you feel like you floating all the time and feeling like you stuck in a dream and losing connection with every one around?
@@nmash6835 Yes like a fainting stage & how r u now dear...
Girl! Me too! I know exactly how you feel. Im constantly tired, im tired of being tired. I feel anxious snd depressed. Its awful. Yup, my blood test shows D deficiency!
I hope you feel better soon! What I noticed is I feel better when I stick to a regimen of taking my vitamin D supplements, a multivitamin with K2, staying hydrated and getting plenty of sunshine whenever I can. I took some time, but I'm finally on the better end of things. Also, have your iron checked, I believe there is a correlation between low vitamin D and iron deficiency, once I was diagnosed with anemia and given iron infusions, that was a real game changer for me. I finally have energy again and my anxiety & depression almost went completely away. Keep me posted with your progress, and have a awesome day! ☀️
@@indeedlove I have vitamin D deficiency but my iron level is over the norm.

I am recovering from Vitamin D deficiency also. Did any of you guys experience hair loss?
I experienced a lot of hair shedding that I have never experienced before. I have heard another woman say she suffered from hair loss.
+Amanda Chandler Thanks for replying. I am losing a lot of hair right now :( I don't know what to do. What did you do about yours?
+Niche Mangui right now I use a protein shampoo and conditioner and keep it braided up under a wig because that's the best way I can manage it right now. but u should look into what you should do because it sounds as if you're losing a lot of hair. everyone experience different outbreaks and symptoms and yours is hair. I'm mostly experiencing chills and weakness. :(
Yes, I experienced a lot of shedding, breakage & hair thinning/loss too. But, I'm anemic also. I wear protective styles & low manipulation hairstyles, to give my hair a break. I figure I'll get my thickness back once my body balances out. But I'm focused on my diet and the rest will fall into place.
I was just told my vitamin level was low. I asked Doctor was my hair loss due to that. She said it was age, smh. Did everyone's hair recover?
Very important video. So many Americans suffer from vitamin D deficiency. People with darker skin pigmentation are even more susceptible to this deficiency.
Thank you! It a wonder that it's not discussed & taught about more than what it is. Many of us are learning the hard way. It certainly should be tested for more regularly, especially for darker toned people living in colder regions.
I understand I just started healing from vitamin deficiency but I went like this for a couple of years I have PCOS so I comes from that too ...I live in Florida though so I am getting out as much as possible now . I am taking 50,000 IUS . Thank you for sharing your story.
Thanks for commenting. Yes, getting out in the sun is the best thing. And, taking the 50,000iu is the fast track to feeling better. Wishing you a speedy recovery! ☀️
awww you are so sweet .:)
Thx! :)
It's so weird, well if you live in Florida you can make vitamin D from the sun all year long, however the society today may not allow us to be able to go outside at the time when vitamin D is able to being produced, which is about 11-14am
Exactly! The way we are always indoors at the peak hours, at work, school, etc.. It really has an effect on our health. Society and the way we do things today, is so not conducive to our health. There is no consideration for geographical location and climate, when it comes to health and well being. Great observation.
a month ago i feel anxious and depression so much. i just dont know why. i watched motivation videos to get over it but nothing change. and your video just pop up in my recommended. so happy to know that. just order d3 5000 iu from amazon. sorry english is not my first language
Hi Me Go with! Thanks for commenting! I'm happy that my video was of some comfort to you. I hope that get relief from the vitamins your ordered and that you have a speedy recovery! ☀️
thank you. how are you now?
Thanks for asking! I am much better. I am still bothered by my iron deficiency anemia and am working to keep my levels up. But otherwise I’m the best I’ve been in years! I found that having a better diet. Getting more sunshine and striving to be healthier overall has really helped me. These defici mixes forced me to take better care of myself. That is Key! 🔑☀️
I just found out today that my levels were 13 ng/ml. for the past few months, I have been extremely tired and exhausted even when I get a decent amount of sleep. My knees started hurting, then my back, then my legs felt too "heavy"? for me to walk even though I am very skinny. I couldn't focus on my workouts because the pain was so bad, every time I felt pain in the gym, I'd think I injured myself. The doctor just prescirbed me 10,000 IU daily, I hope it works.
+Maria Adams, I'm wishing you a speedy recovery. I can totally relate. I'm just beginning to exercise with a bit of ease. Before I couldn't at all, due to the pain and for me very intense shortness of breath. All I can suggest is to be consistent with your regimen, eat properly, drink water, get lots of rest and try to stress as little as possible. I've never taken 10,000iu, but I've heard that amount can mess with your sleep, so just keep watch on how you feel while taking that amount. I hope you feel better very soon. ☀️
Did it work?
Doctor said my Vitamin D deficiency is a a 12. Im so weak in my wrist that I can barely type this youtube post. NOt even funny.
+T Hughes I totally understand how you feel. It is definitely not a laughing matter. It effects our bodies in different ways, but muscular skeletal pain/harm is definitely a result. What did your doctor Rx for you? Most likely they will Rx D2 50,000iu (the little green pills), but D3 is better for our bodies. Along with getting as much direct sun exposure as you can, if you can depending on where you live. Keep me posted with your progress & if you have any questions about my journey don't hesitate to ask. Feel better ☀️
How much time it takes to solve vitamin d deficiency... Because I have been treating it for 3 months
Varsha Rani You MUST take Vit K and magnesium while taking the D in order for your body to absorb it and keep it.
Varsha Rani Geritol Multivitamin pill form has both so that you aren't taking a bunch of different pills daily.
and now?
Just go out and enjoy sunlight at least 1 hour...front and back.Trust me it will fix your every problem.This is not just the theory but the fact.
What your saying is true. The problem is I live in a very overcast area with extremely long winters. Thus, how the deficiency started to begin with...
Dats true i have fatigue n dizzines.i noticed dat after exposing to sunlight.if fades ddizziness slightly..hope n praying

Hi there do u feel really tired got no energy to even talk to ppl or convocation? plz let me know thank u so much
Hey indeed - just wanted to know... Did you ever have racing thoughts and feel restless? Looking forward to your next vid! I'm going to get a vit d test done today so keep me in your prayers 🙏🏾
+Ajcooljay I'm happy your getting tested today. Prayers up! You'll be just fine, even if the levels are low, now you know what to do to correct them, and where to find information from others like me who've shared the same experience. Yes, I had racing thoughts, bad thoughts, complete restlessness especially while trying to sleep. My body felt 100% totally out of whack, which is why I knew something was completely wrong because I was so not like my self. Also see if they can check your Magnesium, Iron & B-12 levels too! Usually when one thing is deficient, there are other deficiencies too because those vitamins work together & need/use each other in a way. Let me know what happens today! 👍🏾
+Indeed Love Awww thanks indeed, it's a blessing to be able to reach you on this platform. The racing thoughts are horrible, it's like you have visions of you harming yourself or being harmed (not that you would) , or like something bad is going to happen and then the adrenaline goes etc Like your brain is always looking for worst case scenario then your brain gets tired from all the overthinking lol. I've not had a drink in while but can feel the vodka bottle will come out tonight. The GP here didn't even believe that depression/anxiety etc are linked with Vit d def, none of them really do. I was just glad to get my blood forms. I should find out results in a week.
Funny thing is that I had no intentions of doing a video on vitamin d deficiency. I was just feeling so crappy and at home from work so long, that I had to find something to do with myself. One of my friends whom is experiencing the deficiency too, suggested I make a video, and I did. Now to see that it's helping someone, is awesome. Outside of that, remember there is so much going on in the world, that being depressed & anxious is a by product of life sometime. Don't pull out the vodka, lol. Just breathe and if you journal try writing out your feelings, good or bad. Maybe write how you would like to feel, and write out some steps on how you could get to that point. Doesn't have to be perfect at all. And above all things, pray and relax. Healing from any deficiency takes planning and action. I've been going through this for over a year, figuring out much of it on my own. But i'm still here & I'm MUCH much better! You will be too. Everyone has thoughts they don't want to have, when they come, know what it is, just a thought then, choose to move past it. I really hope this helps...
+Indeed Love when they....?
It is but it's just that when there's nothing to be depressed or anxious about it's even worse. I just want to get back to my normal self, even 50% of what I was then I'll be happy. How's your friend now that's going through it?
He's almost fully recovered! He's now down to taking a maintenance dose of of 1000iu per day. His levels bounced back after 2-3 months of supplementing, altering his diet and getting back on a daily exercise regimen. He also takes B complex & Magnesium to help him with his anxiety & depression he was suffering after loosing his mom & a few close friends. He's doing very well now. Thanks for asking. Yeah, many times Depression is a by product of deficiency(s), and our bodies way of saying we need a lifestyle & nutrition change. Stay strong & keep pressing on.
Hey! there, I hope you recovered completely by now. Even I am a vitamin D3 deficient. It was 8.8 when checked 3 months ago. I have been taking Supplements (Vitamin D3 60000 IU per week ). My questions are 1) How long does it take to get recovered completely? 2) How long did it take for you to recover? 3) What was your vitamin D3 level when checked for the first time? 4) I have muscle tightness and pain when I wake up in the morning.. Have you experienced the same ever? 5) Could you please name the supplements that you have been taking. Your answers are really appreciable. Thank you.
Sandesh Kulal, Thanks for commenting! To answer your questions... 1) The time varies from person to person for numerous reasons. Environmental factors, like how much sunshine a person is able to get. If they are supplementing, then it can still vary for some people I know personally, it took them 8-16 weeks to see significant changes and be considered in the upper number (30's, 40's 50's vitamin D levels). For others like myself, who are sensitive to the supplements, it's taken me longer because I haven't been consistent with taking the supplements ( I take them for a few weeks, take a break, then start again). Also, I live in a climate which is very cloudy most days and far from the equator, so all of these things play a role in recovery. 2) My levels have fluctuated, like I've mentioned, due to where I live and the amount of sun exposure I get, and my issue with supplementing with high dosages. Also, I'm dealing with an anemia issue as well, so I'm still healing overall. 3) My first levels were 9, which is very low. At one point last summer I got my levels around 30, my doctor said 40's, but I don't remember that happening. Then over the winter my levels dropped quickly, as I was having issues supplementing and the winter was long and harsh. So my levels dropped back to 18, and I'm currently working on them again. I've been supplementing daily with 5,000iu for the past month and I can feel a difference. However, I'm also feeling the issues that makes me take those breaks, severe chest pain, which could be associated with my anemia. 4) Yes I feel terrible in the mornings, lots of body aches, pain in my upper left chest area, lots of bones crackling sounds, and just an overall crappy feeling. This usually happens when my level are super low, or when I have too much supplements in my body, but again it could also be exasperated by my anemia, which comes with it's own additional symptoms. 5) Currently I take Natrol. 5,000iu vitamin D3, over the counter that I pick up at The Vitamin Shoppe. I also sometimes use a liquid vitamin D3 in the drop form. However, last time I visited the ER, I was told to look into a vitamin D injection, but I'd have to research that and find out more info before considering it. I hope this helps! You're welcome. ☀️

Hallelujah 123, Hi & Thanks for commenting! I've had gastric issues, but not for sure if they are connected to low vitamin D, I have gerd (acid reflux). I did experience extreme shortness of breath, which was connected to low iron, I found that was anemic and my hemoglobin/ferritin levels were very low. I felt horrible, extreme fatigue, brain fog, shakiness; inability to workout, climb stairs, etc... it was very bad.

I'm recovering from it as we speak. my diet has been awful. I am on supplements my doctor prescribed to me. I still dealing with depression and on medication. I also had the same symptoms, I felt as if the blood was leaving my body. I need to eat right and exercise
Thanks for commenting. Yes, it can be hard to create new habits, but trust that you will feel better. I found out that I was anemic in addition, so if you can get that checked out too. Iron anemia, b-12, magnesium deficiency, vit d, all go hand in hand, so have those things checked if you can as well. My depression has lifted significantly, now I'm addressing all the health issues. Wishing you a speedy recovery, keep me posted with your progress!
+Indeed Love I had blood work done almost 4 weeks ago and they said everything came back wonderul, except I had a vitamin d deficiency. I know my bones ache in my hands and sometimes my legs, but I believe it's because I do not exercise or eat right. I will start fresh tomorrow because I'm tired of feeling this way, and I have yet to go outside to get some sun.
Bone aches were the worst!! Smh. My back and legs hurt to where I couldn't sleep some nights. I'm still recovering from that too. When I changed my diet I started drinking more water, then cut out caffeine & processed food as much as possible. I'm getting my workout on this summer, since my bones can finally handle it. I'll be posting videos on fitness, very soon... I'm glad your blood work is great & yes get all the sun you can and enjoy it!
+Indeed Love I also am struggling to get a good night's rest. I'm in Ned as we speak. my back aches so badly, my hips, and my chest muscles ache very bad. I was feeling great 2 weeks ago after I found out I was deficient, then all of a sudden I crashed. I wouldn't imagine I would be going through this, but I'm glad I can relate to you because it feels as if you're wasting away, like you're going to die any moment. I have changed my diet, I went for a walk, and I want to recover over night, but I know that won't happen. :(
Gosh, I'm sorry your going through it. I felt the same way. Though you might feel as if you are going to die, you are not. Just remind yourself that. It got very scary for me too, I felt the same way, but you will get better, trust me I've been there. It does require a lot of rest, mentally, physically & emotionally. Don't rush yourself to get better, just focus on the changes your making and take them in stride. You will get better. Get a few hours in the sun daily if you can, that did help me. And, be sure to take your vit D supplement. I had to get back on 50,000 iu because my progress was too slow doing it my way. I'm on my 4th week of the 50,000 and can feel a difference in my body. Pain is almost completely gone, with the exception of my back pain. Keep me posted... and meanwhile rest up.
I'm having chest pains and nerve pain since 2 months. I was absolutely fine and when one day started having chest pain... It scares me a lot... I have done my ECG echocardiogram endoscopy and what not... Doctor said my heart was fine.... All the doctors are saying that I have in society and anxiety is causing me e these weird pains all over my body and specially my chest pain.. somewhat I was not ready to believe them...

And my vitamin d level is 12.... Dr never asked me for a bit test but can my chest pain and other pain all around my body and specially my wrist and my feet can be a sign of vitamin d deficiency... Can vitamin d deficiency at a level of 12 be so severe

I hope that you are feeling better by the time you read this. You are not alone and although this deficiency feels terrible at times, it is also fairly easy to heal from. It just takes time, supplementation, getting as much sunshine as possible, and patience. My levels were 9 and I was able to get them up to 60 and felt much better. I'm currently at 17 because I didn't get enough sunshine this year, and I didn't stay on track with my supplementation. If you need to talk you can reach me here or on my IG @loveyinthemix.

I spent over a K to try to see if anything else was wrong. All my test came back negative. This all started about 10 months ago now...It's a slow grind uphill when it comes to recovery.
@@tejashreeayre418 Update: it's been about 10 months now and my overall level is a 40. My new DR saying I should be in between 50 to 80. A lot of my issues are gone...ie.. muscle spasms and random muscle twitching. The heart palpitations have stopped...thank God...I still am having lower back pain and random leg pain that could be due to muscle tightness. I got checked with blood and urine for multiple test to include HIV, cancer, arthritis etc...everything came back negative so this D deficiency is my only point of reference for pain. I'm on my second dose of 50k vitamin D weekly. I did find out my Iron levels were high. So I am also cutting back on the red meat. It's a slow grind to recovery so just stick with the plan.
@@MHSenju3000 hey bro , I am having same symptoms like you, my vit d is #19 , I am having issues since 4-5 months , totally depressed and extreme fatigue and digestive issue, I am very much afraid that I might have cancer , what tests were done by you to rule out cancer? Please share it I am very much in depression
Are you feeling better cuz man this back and forth pain is irritating
Better, yes. But, completely better... not at all. Lots of up and then down days. I really had no clue that I'd still be dealing with any of this. I truly can't wait until its over. I have lots of upper and mid back pain, that could be related to a fall I took, but also seems closely related to my anemia. The vitamin D deficiency is better, but I still get very shaky at times, still deal with the anxiety, body aches, palpitations etc... just not as severely as before. Progress, but not completely healed yet. Yes I agree, super irritating...

Cool and good news that you are getting closer..Well it looks like it will be a little while longer for me as well..I got good days and bad days sounding like Rice Krispies and what not with my bones sometimes and that aching..I tell ya this stuff is weird to not be self inflicted..
Lol @ Rice Krispies! Yes, definitely weird to say the least. I go from working out one day, followed by 2-3 days painfully recovering from a simple 30min workout. Not cool. Overall it's just really making me reflect on all the things I used to do with ease, that I guess I took for granted. I swear once this is all over I'm doing everything I couldn't do during this illness. So if you see me on here skydiving or something crazy, you'll know I'm back at 100% lol. Currently I'm trying to do something creative and put some sort of hip hop spin on all of this health stuff. I've been longing to get back into my element and this thing has really slowed me down... Everyday is one day closer tho, so we gotta stay positive. We will beat this thing, eventually...
Indeed's World
Haha!...Yea you do think about what was taken for granted and I haven't been to the gym in a lil minute ..My bones seem a little to brittle to be pumping weights and I do things cautiously cuz my bones seem like they will break if I push them to hard..I ain't trying to be drawn out but did you ever experience fragility with your bones like if you push them hard sumthin will break ? And do you take anything for the pain and what is it cuz it is annoying to me especially when it rains it hurts more..
I know what you're talking about. I did experience fragility, I felt so weak throughout this entire experience. My bones crackle a lot too. I actually broke my arm summer before last, I fell off my son's skateboard and broke my arm trying to catch myself. Thing is it was more like a little slip, I hit my arm and had no clue it was broken, it just felt funny. I've been a very rough and tumble mom, so I couldn't believe that little bump actually broke it. That's just how weak my bones were, this was just before finding out that I was vit d deficient. I was feeling bad, but didn't know what was happening to my body, so I thought it was all in my head. My neck/shoulder/upper back is what gives me the most problems, my spine snaps all day long like I'm doing the Rebbie Jackson centipede all day, lol. Oh and I can definitely tell when it's about to rain... smh...
My levelat 16.i feel like dying. Very fatigue, muscle pain, joint pain, abdominal issues , headache, etc what can i do?
Were you given VD3?
Hi Paily. Sorry to hear that you were feeling so badly. I hope that you are feeling better by now. I believe the best thing I've done to heal, is to stick to a regimen of taking my vitamins, eating a better diet, and getting as much natural sunshine as possible. I hope this helps☀️
hi. first time seeing your video. thanks. What type of bone issue did you have to deal with. I too just found out I'm extremely deficient in vitamin D.. what has been your treatment
+Mama Fylees I was having issues walking, my right knee was a ton of pain and I didn't understand why. That progressed to where I just felt weak and in pain all throughout my body. Months later I woke up and couldn't tie my shoes, I was diagnosed with 5 slightly bulging disk in my thoracic area of my back. Was put on a round of steroids for a week or so. Currently I feel much better, but am still healing. My treatment, I got a complete head to toe check up and every test imaginable, everything came back normal except low electrolytes, vitamin d and iron anemia. I've since changed my diet away from many processed foods, to more natural. I take a quality multivitamin, which has vitamin D3, K2, magnesium, and a host of other things. I drink much more water, and now that I'm feeling stronger, am merging back into more exercise. Originally for the bone pain I was sent to a physical therapist, and the hugest thing I did to get better was allow myself to rest and get as much natural sun as I could, which is really hard in this area where I live. I took 6 months off from work because it was really that bad. But over time, I've healed. And though I still have up and down days, it's nothing like before. I still have a ways to go though....
Indeed Love yes. you've been through a lot. my dc put me on Vitamin D 2 but I heard from RUclips D 3 is much better absorbed into the body. can you tell me where I can get D 3 from
D3 is much better and the one we should use. I purchased mine at The Vitamin Shoppe, but I am about to switch to Raw D3 and give that a try. It is supposed to be a more natural, higher quality, better absorbed vitamin D. I currently get about 500ius of my D3 in my multivitamin, then I take a separate 2,000iu. You should be able to find a good quality D3 at any health food store, vitamin store or even in some grocery stores that sell organic and good quality foods. I hope this helps :)
Indeed's World do you have any muscle twitches
@@indeedlove what magnessium?
brother plz tell me something about it my vitamin d level is 10.1 I checked it on 10 feb 2021.it’s beeen 3 weeks I have taken 200,000 IU injection in these 3 weeks but there is no improvement at all!.How much time it will take to recover ??
girl you looking good, wassup?

Is vitamin d3 deficiency a blurry vision or an ear problem?
It can be both and much more.
@@indeedlove Ringing on the ears ?
Yes, it messed up my eyes and ears for a while
Sister I did mistake I done my bloodwork on 10th January my d3 level was 10.5ngml. Then Dr prescribed me 60k iu for 4 weeks I took 3 tablets of 60kiu and again I did bloodwork on 30th January my level was on 86.00ng/ml. Then I stop medication because I thought it will reach on toxicity level so I got scared and i stop medication for 15 days then I checked again my d3 level was at 76.00ng/ml. I got lots of confusion what should I do.. do I stop medication or continue Because when I used to talk about my symptoms to the doctor they just simply said that you had (anxiety) they don't understand my symptoms. I already meet almost 23 doctors Please help me 🙏🙏🙏how to start madication with proper guidance. I'm from india and need help sister
I'm not a doctor so I can't specifically say what you should do. What helped me was getting as much sunshine as possible, changing my diet to a healthier one, taking my supplements (8 weeks of 50,000 is when I first saw decent results), addressing my iron anemia, B12, magnesium and potassium deficiencies. And reducing stress, I had to make myself stop worrying about my illness and do the action to heal. I got my bloodwork done to see what all I was deficient in, then I worked on healing those things. I hope this helps☀️
And just before one month I also had vitamin d defieciency and undergoing 10000 ui per day
Kingston coffee...I luv it the name...wow.... East African dessert.... thanks for your information...my dear...
Thanks you! ☀️
Hi, did you ever suffer from extremely bad headaches when having low vitamin d?
Headaches, body aches, shortness of breath, migraines, fast heart rates, feeling like total crap... I experienced all of it.
@@indeedlove how about nausea?
@@lawncrew9886 Yes daily after wakeup in the morning it's continues. And fainting like states nervous anxious sweating dizziness. heavy head, headache, a urge to passout. tingling, numbness, shortness of breath all these. And plz tell what is your symptoms ?
Hello, i have my vitamin d at 9.8. How much time do you think will take to heal. I have been put on 60000UI of vitamin D-3 on weekly basis by my Doctor. I am whitish brown in colour, age 23 and have started going out in the sun as well.
+GauravLodha Hi! I personally can't give you an estimate on how long it takes, because everyone's body is different. My friend was deficient at a level 9, he is dark complexion, he took 50,000iu for around 5-6 months and his levels reached just above 50 in that amount of time. Unlike me, he was able to tolerate the high dosage of vitamin D, and his work/life schedule is way different from mine. It has taken me much longer just to reach a level 25, because I had a very hard time with the larger doses and may have other absorption issues which i am in process of being checked for. So it just depends. Best thing to do is stick to your regimen, then get checked periodically by your doctor. And of course get as much sunshine as you can like you have been doing. Hope this helps! Have a beautiful day ☀️
Indeed Love thankyou so much! I forgot to mention that my doctor gave me an injection of 300000UI, which he will give me for two more months. I have already strted feeling better. Do you think i can get better in 2-3 weeks?
I'm glad that you are feeling better. Again, I can't say how long it will take, that is up to your body. But you seem like you are on the path to recovery and that's a good thing. If you do get better in 2-3 weeks, let me know, because then I may need to stop what I am doing and do what you are doing! 😊 Keep me posted with your progress!
Indeed Love yes i will update you.
Thanks!
can we have pain killers regularly because I am not able to stand, walk without pain killers. as I am facing unbearable pain from 2 months
Hi Ameen Kidwai! Finding out if you can take pain killers is something you should discuss with your doctor. I know that there is a lot of bone and muscle pain associated with this deficiency as I have experienced lots of pain myself. At a point I was prescribed muscle relaxers, but I'm not one for taking lots of medication, so I barely used the relaxants. I was prescribed them by my doctor, so you should definitely check with your GP to see what would work best in alleviating your pain. I hope this helps, and I hope that you feel better soon.☀️
@@indeedlove many thanks for you response. my Vitamin D level is 28 and also have vitamins B12 deficiency. could you please let me know how much time it will take for recovery.
@@ameenkidwai9972 just wondering how your recovery is coming along? My vitamin d just tested at 28 and I’ve been in so much pain, poor mobility, exhaustion, etc. Started supplements 10 days ago and curious how long it takes to feel better.
@@ameenkidwai9972 hey i m having same problem what should i do and how much time it take to relive in pain please reply??
@@rahulsolanky5637 take proper medicines for vitamin D 3 as per your reports.
If there is pain in your muscles and bones you can take pain killer as per adviced by your dr.
It will take minimum 1 month for the recovery of vitamin D and you will feel better hopefully.
Did you have insomnia or trouble sleeping?
Hello Plant Seed! Yes, I definitely had my bouts of insomnia, especially when I was supplementing with the vitamin D. Vitamin D is a hormone that can cause sleep issues. When I reduced my dosages, my sleep improved. ☀️
For me it's the opposite. I am hoping Vitamin D would fix my sleeping issue. Apparently Vitamin D deficiency also causes insomnia.
Funny thing is the deficiency causes sleep issues and taking too much of the supplement causes insomnia as well. It’s a double edged sword. Finding balance is key 🔑
I had no symptoms of vitamin D, had a blood test the doctor put me on 40,000iu once a week for 7 weeks, my levels were 35.2. By the 2nd and 3rd week I had bone pain in every joint, my blood pressure went through the roof, palpations hospitalized twice and now been referred to cardio. I stopped vitamin D from the advice of health professionals and now 6 weeks later, I have knee pain and wrist pain also ankle pain. I read that it could take weeks or months to get back to where they were? Does anyone have experience with this please I'm just turned 39 years my body heals well generally?
too much stick to 25ug and you should be fine
The Foto Lady you probably were magnesium deficient because large doses of Vit D will deplete your magnesium levels quickly. You have to take both when taking Vit D ........most Doctors don’t know this I hope that helps and take care
Vitamin d3 needs vitamin K2 mk7 and magnesium glycinate with it . Otherwise it won't work properly . Regular intervals blood checkup is also must for this . Try to manage your vitamin d level in between 50 to 80 . 100 is its upper limit . So don't cross it .if your blood pressure is high . Try to lower your sodium intake and try to cut caffeine completely . do not consume tea and coffee or dark chocolate till your cortisol level comes to normal . You can try Ashwagandha also for it .
Hey same with me I don't know what to do 😢😢😢😢😢
Did u have hot flashes too..I'm low on vitamins d too
I didn't really experience hot flashes.
did you ever get a swollen tongue?
No, I didn't experience that.
That could be from b12 deficiency
Take Garden of life 5,000 ius!!!! It’s the best one out there!
Thanks! I'll check into those 👍🏾
Indeed's World yes, you definitely should! My vitamin D levels were always low, and the only thing that worked for me was the vitamin D3 by garden of life. My levels went from 16 to 39 after 2 weeks of taking it. Hope it works for you and good luck! :)
+lilly smith Wow really! Did it make you shaky, anxious or have insomnia at all? Some of the higher doses does that to me, but 16 to 39 is impressive. I will definitely give this a try! Thanks again!
Indeed's World nope, didn’t experience anything like that, I think because it is a food based vitamin so your body responds to it better. Hope you get the same results as I did! Good luck :)
Thank you!
thank you.im about to start drinking milk 3 glasses a day.
Hi Aaisha! Thanks for commenting. There is some vitamin D in milk, but not nearly enough that we need. You may want to look into a good supplement. Hope this helps! Have a beautiful day! ☀️
