Vitamin D improvement

I had read that Vit D can help with chest tightness and wheezing, recently took a few low doses, and was surprised that I did not need to take any inhalers for three days,despite going for walks in cold weather, which usually would have a negative effect. I had recently been given Symbicort instead of Seretide and have only used it once in the last week. I am going to try magnesium also, just to see if that also helps. I only really suffer from mild chest tightness and sometimes bad wheezing, but that seems so far to have subsided. This is just a test to try and find a solution for myself, others may have to be more careful. I will post if any more improvement happens, though will still keep meds with me, just in case!
