@rappva13 Since writing that post my PCP did have me tested for vitamin D and I was somewhat low so I am now taking 50,000 IU once a week. He prescribed D2 and I have asked two other doctors if it should be D3; they both said that D2 was fine too. Of course I always wonder if one doctor will contradict another. I see the endo who will be handling my osteoporosis in January so I will know more then. He is not a local doctor, he's in Boston, so I think I can believe him more than I can local doctors.
