Re: New warnings about vitamin D

I have nothing to worry about a-fib.....I take a Rx strength and I can't get my number higher than a 22. That creates other problems though.

Re: New warnings about vitamin D

Wow, surprising and very interesting information.

The last time I had my bloodwork done I was low in Vitamin D. My doctor (actually a nurse called me and relayed the bloodwork results) said to take Calcium supplements with D, she specifically told me to take Caltrate with D supplements. So that's what I take, 2 a day.

A lot of people don't often think of vitamins as being helpful or harmful to your health, but it's so true, too much or too little of a vitamin can really make you very ill.

Re: New warnings about vitamin D

This is a really old thread--was started in 2011. There are probably newer studies now. My doctor told me to take Vitamin D.

Wow....this is an OLD thread.

There is a troll bumping up old threads on Viewpoints too.

Apparently, someone is bored.

holy cow you can't win.

my Vit. D level was very low last time I had my bloodwork done, well below normal range. I was told to take supplements, Citracal with D, 2 tabs a day.

I trust that is ok, now I am worried and will have to ask my dr. about this report, I have history of heart disease on both sides of my family.

OMGosh Amp...you can't win. I know I'm low on Vitamin D so take a supplement and citracal or caltrate plus d daily. It's one thing or another. ugh
