PBC, vitamin d and nasal cell carcinoma

[Mary48]

I have had PBC for many years and have just been diagnosed as having a rodent Ulcer (nasal cell carcinoma). I have been given an information leaflet which mentions Vitamin d levels. Has anyone had this experience/or have any knowledge of this.

Hi I have had a basal cell carcinoma removed (these are benign). I’m on Vitamin d because following diagnosis of PBC I had a dexa scan for bone density and it revealed osteopenia hence the vitamin d. X

Spell check always second guessing, should have read Basal

Hi,

I supplement vitamin A D E and K following a DVD I watched on You Tube a Roundrobin table discussion on PBC. I checked my vitamin D levels which came back moderate after a winter sunshine holiday so started supplementing then. I have checked with my specialist that these supplements are okay for me. I have not been diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma,

I have regular blood tests for my vitD levels which are apparently normal

Hi Mary,

I had a basal cell carcinoma in my eye a number of years ago (pre PBC). I was told nothing to worry about as it’s not like cancer. I had mine surgically removed and not had any problems since.

I love the sunshine and it’s good for vitamin d levels. Good excuse to take more holidays!!

Best wishes

I love The sunshine
