D3 levels /Ca levels

[Crete]

just got some tests back

Vitamin D3 (25-OH) 38.84 ng/mL

"Adequate " range 30-100 - I am translating from Greek here...

Ca 9.5 mg/dL ( range 8.2 -10.2)

I have been supplementing uni-pharma D3fix plus K2 1200 IU D3 plus 45 mg K2 for 6 months.

Before that during the winter months I was supplementing 2000 IU D3.

My endo is watching my Ca levels and doesn't want to up the dose od D3 , but I can't get a good level of D3 for years now ...

And does a high level of calcium indicate its not going where it's supposed to anyway??

Is this a common issue with hypo auto immune thyroid patients?

2000 iu's of D3 based on your result looks fine. Are you supplementing VitK2-MK7 ? This can ensure increased calcium is directed away from soft tissue (arteries) and into bones and teeth.

It seems people with Hashimotos have issues with low VitD. Research done in Crete !

hey there!

Yes ,also supplement K2-MK7

Guess I am stuck with low readings-

Thanks for your reply - hope you are well!

I recently doubled my dose after a recent test result...so currently taking 8000 iu's ! Getting ready for winter ! - the winter that never goes away....😊
