Vitamin D Testing with Bronchiectasis/MAC infection

Barbara, my Dr tests my Vitamin D annually as part of my Well Exam labs, and it’s all covered by Medicare without prior approval. My readings were low when I was in my early sixties already and she started then. She said it is a sluggish supplement to absorb for some people.I’m diligent to take it with my calcium, and with food containing some fat, as I was advised. Good luck!Jeanne

@heidi0974 @snoei Thank you both for your response.
Also I was told to take magnesium with the D and yes with fat. You may also know: "Magnesium helps your body absorb vitamin D better. "
I make sure I have had a meal with olive oil for the fat.
Hate to do it time wise in the busy life our health has given us, but, my rheumatologist retired and I need to search out another. Glad you reminded me.
Barbara.
