Vitamin D and Anxiety
I've got low vitamin D and one of my symptoms is severe anxiety and panic attacks. Not sure if these are related. Someone suggested taking magnesium alongside vitamin D to help with the panic and anxiety. Has anyone had any luck with magnesium citrate helping with anxiety?

Background I was diagnosed with PMR in June 2024. Fortunate in having very supportive GP who quickly started me on 15 mg Predisolone which brought about dramatic improvement. Dose has been reduced to 14 mg after 1 month. GP plan is to reduce by about 1mg a month, depending on monthly blood test results

Vitamin D & Calcium Supplements - current advice from Canadian Doctors.

Lack of Information
I just recently found out I am in Stage 3b. I am a 71 year old female. If I hadn't pointed out my unusual lab results to my family doctor, I might still not know. I had been told for years that they were "going to keep an eye on it." Yet no one did. I had to request to see a specialist. Now that
