A member asked:

My vitd level is 17, doc gave me 1000iu per day.took the first dose yesterday and i need to pee all the time.i almost peed myself while sleeping.why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vit D level: Was dangerously low. Your doc probably wants you to start on a low dose because of the paradoxical increase in symptoms when you start the right treatment. Persist with the low dose until the symptoms fade away and you will then need to increase the dose because d3 is poorly absorbed. Get sun exposure because that is the normal way of getting vit d. Level should be 60-80 so get it checked later.
