Can excess vitamin d or c cause itchiness? a few days ago i went from taking 1,000 iu d to 2,000 iu d. i also upped my vitamin c to 2,500mg per day.

Not from vitamins: Vitamins won't make you itch but there could be compounds in the vitamin tablets that you react to. Make sure that you're using quality supplements. The amounts of D and C that you're taking should not give you any problems.
