Mind boggling!

Thank you for spreading the word. I was diagnosed with a disturbing lack of vitamin D about 3 years ago, so much so, that I was given an injection followed by 1000mg tablets (the size of very large buttons) which I had to swallow daily for months.

Thankfully, I’m now on tiny blue pills (straight out of The Matrix), which I take daily.

Suffice to say, most of my most annoying ailments, like rolling cold infections, every Flu bug that walked past me, and me constantly feeling like death warmed up have virtually disappeared.

I feel much healthier (even if I’m not) and I’m much more happier for it.

Have a great day, everyone :-)

That was a really good read Mary.

I’m still re reading it.

“ Pseudovasculitis “ is a useful term to become familiar with for a APS patients who present with Vasculitis like rashes, but may not be ANCA PANCA positive. This was very helpful for me to learn about in this article. ( among others!)

Thank you for posting!

Hi everyone,

My rheumatologist just recommended that I double my daily Vitamin D dose, even though my blood test put me at 39 ng/mL.....and the reference range is 30.0-100.0 ng/mL.

Apparently those if Us with APS may benefit from extra Vit D.
