One way to find out: Low Vit. D causes many imbalances. Face bloating isn't a classic symptom of low D, but it's possible it's connected. Whether it is or not, it's important to correct this for your overall health. When your D levels normalize you will see if your bloating improves. Most adults need 5-8000 iu of D3/day. Aim for levels of 50-80. See http://tinyurl.com/m67hmkg PS could also be side effect of your meds
