Living with high calcium score

I wonder if I’m taking too much vitamin D, which is over the normal amount on the chart that I have for vitamin D. I think I take it twice a day, but maybe I should cut down on one of them.

Here is what Mayo Clinic says about Vitamin D. It does address typical dosages and recommends talking to your doctor to determine what your needs are. Also, you will find a list of possible serious side effects of taking too much may cause.

Have you had your blood tested to check your vitamin D level?

@itasarah have your vitamin D level checked and they will then tell you what dose you may need. It can be bad if you get too much

@itasarah It's highly dependent on the individual. I have to take 3000 IU/day just to keep it stable. I have over two years' experience in fiddling around with the amount and getting blood tests. 🙂
