I was diagnosed in 2013. I also had a vitamin D level of 2. Can't remember my sed rate, But it was high. When my vitamin D levels were brought back up fo normal, my sed rate also dropped. I get tested 2x's a year to make sure the sed rate doesn't go crazy and my D levels don't drop again. I am lucky that I can control the flares with Naproxen. I'm also thankful that my Dr didn't want me to get on the prednisone merry-go-round.
