Hi, does or has anyone on the Bone Health area found there levels of certain minerals and vitamins depleted when they have gone for blood tests, 3 months ago I was diagnosed with crucial vitamin D levels, after 3 months on extremely high doses of vitamin D its now showing normal levels, but at the same time the new test results show low calcium levels, higher than normal alkaline phosphate levels and slightly higher than normal inflammatory markers.I am wondering if its all caused by the high doses of vitamin D.

I hope that helps. :)

You will see that the logo for NOS and the logo at the top of the forum page are the same.
