You are taking way too much vitamin D…..I believe the upper limit is 4000 to 5000 units and you may not need that much. Consider the vitamin d you receive from the sun and from foods. While vitamin D is good for your immune system, it does not prevent viral infections or getting Covid or being hospitalized.
I take Vitamin K2 and d3 specifically for bone health and because I have osteoporosis, and on the advice of a doctor. . Have done so for years without side effects. It may be that your ocular migraines are from the vaccine.
There are so many people reporting physical problems after the vaccines and I have heard that ocular migraines is a common one.
I would have a blood panel done and a specific one for Vitamin D to check your levels. Also include a test for UTI to rule out lightheadedness and foggy feeling. I know you will get more information from having a complete blood work up.
Toxicity from too much vitamin D can happen but I think someone would have to ingest an awful lot for that to happen. You might want to check with an eye doctor for the flashes of light.
So, I doubt vitamin D is the culprit. I don’t know anything about your personal medical history and what medications, if any , you are taking. The problem with taking vitamins on our own is that we often take too many for many different reasons without consulting a doctor. Not all vitamins are created equal and they are not regulated by the FDA nor are they a substitute or panacea for what ails us.
Didn’t mean to “soapbox” you but this addressed to everyone else too. All of us should generally be aware of the pitfalls of using vitamins indiscriminately.
Wishing you good health and if you do decide to go the route of blood tests, I would love to hear what the results are. This is such a great forum to ask questions and share information and read postings from some very knowledgeable people out there.

Thank you for the response! I did stop taking the vitamin D, and don’t plan on resuming it. I have a general blood panel and urinalysis done about two weeks ago. At that point, I hadn’t taken vitamin D for maybe 6 weeks. I also didn’t ask for the levels to be checked. But everything else came back great.
I agree though, I should have had levels checked and take an appropriate amount, if any was needed at all.
I’m assuming some of the symptoms will settle down. I’m drinking plenty of water and eating healthy, and am otherwise in great health. And the mri came back normal.
Thanks for the input on the ocular issues and the vaccine. I have seen an eye doctor and eyes are totally okay. I never really put the dates together with when I got the vaccine and when it all started, so I wasn’t even asking doctors if that’s a possibility.
Thanks
