Appreciate you sharing your story. Gives us hope. I had so many of the similar symptoms. My levels were 12.5. I felt very fatigued, and tired all the time. Bone/muscle pain was a constant. Anxiety/racing thoughts that won't let me sleep properly. After years of researching deadly diseases online, I realized I had finally caught one and was counting my last few days. Thank god I did full body tests and found that I am vitamin D deficient. Even after the first week of supplementing, I feel better.
I am so glad to hear that! I hope you will be all better soon!
I am on Vitamin D supplements for last 2 months and 80% of symptoms like Extreme Fatigue, Headache, Neck Pain and Low Back Pain are gone but dizziness is not 100% gone. The intensity of dizziness has reduced and I hope it completely goes by the end of 3rd month.
How much Vitamin D are you taking? Also, do you take any magnesium glycinate or vitamin K2 to help absorption?
@@bartginger123 I am taking 50000 weekly and daily 400 IU. I am also taking Vitamin K2 but not magnesium. I will soon start magnesium. Thanks.
@@ruchirabanerjee6104 and how about brain fog did you experienced that during the vitamin d deficiency?
@@salimerfan9822 I have not experienced brain fog. My chief symptoms was Vertigo which is still there if not severe, headaches and extreme joint pain.
@@ruchirabanerjee6104how are you feeling now and what about the dizziness? is it gone?
Finally someone mentions the racing thoughts omg this is insane... I went through this 4 years ago when my D3 level was 4 and I was feeling like I was about to die...literally! I could not get any sleep I started taking xanax it was horrible. And now I'm going through it again this time my level is 16 not as bad as 4 years ago but still it is bad. I'm getting a lot of comfort knowing I'm not the only one experiencing these symptoms! Thank you so much for sharing really and all my best wishes to all of you struggling out there!!!💙
16?? Try supplementing with a higher dose of D3! Your level should be 50+. Start with 10k IU or higher if you want quicker relief. Up to 50k IU daily with K2 and magnesium is safe.
I actually had the racing thoughts as well even though my level was 12.5. I personally describe them as anxiety. And yeah you are right, it does feel like dying. It is pretty horrendous when combined with other symptoms like bone/muscle pain, fatigue, exhaustion, and the general depression that ensues due to low levels of D3.
Thank you for both of these video’s. I’ve had almost all the symptoms you described and my blood tests came back VERY low on vitamin D. I found your videos very reassuring and a week into “treatment” my brain fog is starting to go away.
thanks
Yes! 1 week into the treatment the brain fog starts to recede a bit. I think it will be quite a while though till it clears away for me completely.
I was STARVING the other day for the first time in a long time. My vitamin D was so low that I wasn't eating because my body wasn't functioning properly. Since I've been on 50,000iu of Vitamin D weekly, I'm actually hungry but I'm also losing weight. Before, I would go 3 days without food and not gain or lose a pound, and only ate because I was reminded to.
It was so strange to be that ravenous. I just wanted protein and brussels sprouts.
How are you now? Because that’s my biggest issue. I can hardly eat and I’m losing weight fast. I went to the doctor a month ago I was 219 and went to the gi a few days ago, I’m already 210. I can hardly eat. Is this normal?
May I suggest, if you boil your brussel sprouts, boil them in filtered, distilled or spring water, NOT tap water.
Pay attention to the taste, AMAZING AND SHOCKINGLY different.
@@pennywilliams8121 I think so, my friend is the same way. He lost 10 pounds in 3 months, Vitamin D deficient, but he's taking more VitD3/K2 now and we're waiting to see what happens. Hope you're better yourself.
I can relate to your story so much . I have low vit D at the moment and I realy felt tired and dizzy and very bad lower back pain .I am on my second week of taking vit D supplements . Thanks for sharing your story ❤
Wow your voice also sounds so much better compared to the other video!
I hadn’t even noticed!
The optimal daily dosage of Vitamin D varies substantially from person to person. I've been taking 5000 IUs per day, and my latest Vitamin D test shows that I'm at 67 ng/mL, which is within my target of 60 to 80 ng/mL.
Yes, very true! There is no one size fits all dosage. 67 ng/ml is great!
What else do you take with it
nice thanks
@@joyfullysimple did you have any stomach problems
@@dariusacquilwarren5230 ..I have digestive issues...bloating and gas...r u talking about similar issues
5:25 WOW! I just JUMPED OFF of my chair when I heard you describe that part about the numbness! I
ve been experiencing this FOR YEARS now and my doctors couldn't tell me what it was. I'm glad I came across your video. Stay blessed.
My mother-in-law had numbness in her hands and the doctors didn’t know how to help her. Once she started taking vitamin D (her levels were lower than mine) - it disappeared! I wish you all the best and hope you’ll get better fast ☺️
@@joyfullysimple How much time it taken her to disappeared the numbness.
@MyVariousDelights I’m AA like your mother in law, can you share what brand of vitamins/supplements and dosages she took as I too have terrible numbness in my fingers. Please help and congratulations on your recovery!
Dude my eyes went wide when you said the thing about lower back whilst turning in bed. That's been happening to me for a couple of weeks and couldn't explain it until I finally got my vitamin D results back. Didn't realise they were connected.
And the peeing during the night!
All of that went away for me! It was all the vitamin d for sure. The back pain took quite a while to fully disappear - about 6 months but it’s actually gone now ☺️
I had a vitamin d level of 13 and I have Ankylosing Spondylitis. I've been on meds for 2 weeks and I have to inject myself with biologic immune suppressors every week forever.
I already feel better than I have in two years since I started meds.
@@haleydoe644did you know that ankolizing spondylitis can be relieved greatly by a completely starch free diet?
literally going through it right now these racing thoughts are so scary ):
Experiencing this now. It's hell on earth!
I am sorry to hear. There is a way out, though. I am 2 years further and all of my vitamin D related symptoms are gone.
Thank you for the update!
I had all the symtoms you described, my vitamin d level is 13 right now, i start taking vitamin d suppliment, i wish i could recover from this nightmare
Are you feeling any better yet?
mine is a 12 it looks like its been a year, how are you feeling now
@@bsinsight3097mine is 12 too, how much dose have you been taking daily?
Just started 10,000 u of D per day this week after over way over 3 years of suffering all the things you mentioned and more. So now to find out why this is happening...they (dr.) Think my parathyroid has tumores on it.
I really hope that the vitamin D will help you ☺️
Great video … my symptoms were just like yours , exhaustion was horrible, and I couldn’t sleep enough , after 3 weeks at 4000ui much better sleep and less cat naps for sure .
Tattoo artist so my back always hurts , but not so much anymore.
I was having migraines ( not headaches ) and when I wasn’t it was bad headaches behind my eyes , no migraines and after the first week only 1 headache .
Brain fog…. Well I rent to consume cannabis , so the jury is still out on that 😂, but seriously o can focus a lot better . Energy is getting a lot better .
I should mention I’m in Canada so natural vitamin d is harder to get .
Again great video , and it made me happy to see that my results are positive like yours , it’s somehow a great relief .
Thanx
David :)
Ufff the headaches with eye pain man those were just as bad as migraines,I had to turn my whole head to look at something eye movement made it worse!
I take 20,000 IU daily, and sometimes as high as 50,000 IU on some days. Look up high dose Vitamin D3 and consider upping your intake to 20,000 IU daily. It is safe.
@Mayank Chaube I can help you. And yes 20000 is safe if you take 200mcg of k2 with it and cut out dairy and other calcium foods. My calcium intake is 800mg or so when I supplement with d3 and k2 and I do natural magnesium from food and seaweed
I am taking 60000 iu alone
Is that ok for vit d improvement or something else I should take
I am currently taking 60,000 iu along with K2 daily for 2 months. Then maintenance dose of 20,000 iu daily.
No it's not safe
Das ist sehr hilfreich. Ich habe ähnliche Symptome und mir wurde geraten meine Eisenwerte zu überprüfen. Dem Eisenmangel kann man gut mit frei verkäuflichen Kapseln beheben.
Viele Grüße und alles Gute
Karoline
Genau, Müdigkeit wird häufig durch wenig Eisen, B12 oder Vitamin D verursacht. Bei mir war es echt Vitamin D. Meine Eisenwerte waren bisher immer im ganz guten Bereich. Ich wünsche dir viel Erfolg beim Herausfinden der Ursache und hoffe, das sich deine Symptome schnell bessern ❤️
People forget that you need K2 and Magnesium for yiur body to use Vitamin D effectively.
I am doing my updatee soon as personal level - Yes I had news last week that my vitamin D is at 8, it is awful, I've had a year of disaster - started with covid which was rough then a month after dizziness and fatigue got worse, brain fog got worse, anxiety got worse and the head aches, now recently my bones and joint is not good, I used to plenty of push up of which cannot do and only do 5 at best.
The vertigo happened but my ear pains and fullness is awful and this still an issues just started my supplements now, but need others like K2 id say too, I am with my dietican later of which they have not told me I have low IGA,,,,,,,!??
How do you feel now?
@@salimerfan9822how do u feel bro?
It's a horrible feeling, especially the vertigo 😢it's been hell for me the past year or so..
Any person suffering from IBSD and deficient in vitamin D? Did taking vitamin D helped with leaky gut? Kindly guide me if someone has recovered from this , as I'm suffering from these issues..help me with this
I am suffering from ibs D and vitamin D defieceny it terrible how do you feel now ?
Do u had problem concentrating/ focussing & light sensitivity?
@dom anca thanks mine got better now, stick to the D and Sunshine, wish u a speedy recovery.
@@shubham_sangeeta_rathore Do u have heart palpitations ?
I have that. Did yours go away
@@Riseandrollin nope
I’m always worried about digestive issues when taking vitamin D because it can constipate you. It increases your calcium levels that’s why. I have a horrible digestive system.
like what symptoms
Many people are taking it with Magnesium and Mg is a main ingredient in many meds for constipation.
I live in the south of the world and I recently discovered that I have 7 vitamin D!! (almost nothing) the psychiatrist gave me 8 shots of vitamin. but it's only once a week, yesterday I took the first one and I feel better. But I wonder if it's okay to just take that. I would appreciate some advice from you.
How much was one shot?
Doesn’t seem as though you have actually put your Vitamin D statistics up as you said you would?
I was on vit d 60k once a week and after on med I became so tired that I can barely walk and stand. Can this be the cause or just in my head? Doctor says no one have auch sideffects? Any suggestion would be recommended
Hi same here
Thank u
Please I am taking vit d 3 capsules
Powder inside
I didnt see much improvements
What is the best form of vit d3 to take???
Please I am suffering
If it’s powered you need to take it with a few drops of oil or an oily meal, otherwise your body can’t absorb it right. Vitamin D3 always needs some kind of oil. The best thing to take would be vitamin d3 oil drops if that’s available for you.
Mam vitamin d diffiency causes pcos problem
i have doubt for vitamin d taking with fat ...should i not drink water just swallow the pill?..
You HAVE to take it with fat, ideally a medium to large sized meal to maximize absorption. Otherwise you are effectively wasting it. You also need to take it with vitamin K2, and magnesium bisglycinate for your body to be able to use the Vitamin D properly.
@@martinkingston1498 I'm pretty sure I was told that if it's a gel capsule then you should be okay because it's soluble. Will have to double check on that now since I read your comment.
thanks
I m taking one 10000 iu D3 and 55mcg k2 two Peels and magnesium 400mg one capsule. is it right way of taking?because before my doctor gave 60000 iu d3 weekly without k2 and magnesium for 2 months .so after 2 months I started taking 10000 iu D3 4 tablets and k2 55 mcg 8 capsule and 400 mg magnesium one capsule for 4 days and after that I continued. 1 D3 and 2 55 mcg k2 and one 400 mg magnesium is it ri8 way?
How did it go for you?
Does the symptoms take a while to subside even after increasing the D levels
That's a good question ? Has your symptoms went away ? May I ask your levels ? Before and now ? Thanks
@@vickymyprayergarden6846 ...it was 10 and now its 39 ng after 5 months..but still has the symptoms...though its reduced
@@dileepmurali2379 how do you feel now?
Yes it'll take a while our bodies have deficient for so long it needs to adapt to the new changes even tho u have a good level keep taking them remember that you'll have on in off symptoms from the deficiency and the supplements be strong and it'll get better just be patient
Are there any ear symptoms due to vitamin d3 deficiency?
I have some! I constantly have sharp pains in my head above my ears. I keep fluid on both ears, causing dizziness or vertigo.
I get that too. Alot of fluid and ear infections
I have . I feel intense ear pressure or fullness in my right ear. I just started supplementing. Did you guys ears clear?
Which brand name supplements are you taking? I know you are not telling anyone to take those particular ones, but we are just wondering which ones are working for you.
Brand doesn’t matter, all of it is the same. Just make sure it’s a D3. And not a D2
May I ask do you take all 3 at the same time and do you have it in the morning or evening?
I do! I usually take them in the morning before breakfast but I don’t drink coffee so it’s not a problem for me. If you drink coffee or alcohol you need to wait at least 1-2 hours before consuming the vitamins because the caffeine washes them right out of your system. It’s best to take them before a meal ☺️
Best to take they with a meal with fat
@@mariopavkovich4363 yes
Im a couple weeks into treatment and i still feel like shit.
It gets worse before it gets better your body is making adjustments you've probably been deficient for a while so be strong
@@adolfogarcia7805 what gets worse. I am on around 2 weeks. I had food results after 7 days with period pains lessening greatly. My glands then got swollen in my throat and then the constant sore throat has improved.. but i was wondering if i am getting some overwhelm from my body not being used to it.. i am taking 4000iu a day. Hoping it also sorts my body pain more and my ringing ear and improves anxiety
Are you taking d3 wit k2? I took some that was not working before.do not tryst the better you ones.. Now I'm taking liquid d3 with k2 in the same thing. Its working after 1-2 weeks.. the amount us 4000iu a day. I got it iff ebay
What type of magnesium do you use?
Magnesium citrate
@@joyfullysimple is it normal to still have symptoms after your D levels have increased? I went from 12 ng/ml to 70.7ng/ml in 2 months.
@@warrenstringham415 yes because sometimes the body is still recovering. It’s all about recovery. 60 is the lowest you want it . 70-100 is where it should be. Your symptoms could also come from low potassium or magnesium and make sure you are taking k2 100 mcg with every 10000iu of d3. And avoid high calcium foods like dairy unless you are getting leg cramps and doc tells you that you need calcium then take calcium other wise avoid calcium
@@warrenstringham415 you might want it to go a little more higher then 70 if you are getting tested and taking vitamin d. Because intaking vitamin d supplements and getting tested at the same time many cause the blood test readings to be higher. To get accurate d3 blood test readings you must not take any d3 for 1 month before the test. And if you are taking it then I would try to shoot for 90-100 then come off the supplements for 2 months and retest and start sun bathing and retest. You will see more accurate results and will see if sunlight is working for you as a natural source
@@Gamingandhealth Weird! The clinic where I got my test done said that my vitamin D supplementation won't affect the test results since I've been taking them for a few months now. My test result would have only been affected if I'd taken a supplement for the first time before the test. That would have surely spiked the D levels in the system. I had specifically asked about this to avoid getting a false reading and had been assured it'd not happen, provided that I'd been supplementing for a few weeks.

I a still suffering
Dr. Jayashree Ramana has a wonderful video on vitamin D.
You should probably get your vitamin levels checked by a doctor because maybe your issue is not a Vitamin D deficiency and could be another Vitamin deficiency.
How much ius do you take? And vitamin D sadly takes a while to get raised I’m dealing with depression and anxiety from it so the best thing to probably do is take 5000-10000ius per day and sitting in the sun for 30-45 mins a day if the sun is out but be patient man I’m doing my best to be patient aswell
You need to take 60ius d3 for e week and then reduce the dose.
See the first video.
You look a lot like a youtuber named Loepsie!
I think one other person told me that before, if I remember correctly. She is located in the Netherlands as well 😅
Mam pls reply to my query regarding this problem.. I've been taking vit-D 60k dose per week for 2weeks now(3rd one taken today) every day I'm having serious tiredness, couldn't go to sleep quickly at night... Pls🙏 tell me how much time it takes for me to be normal... I've my life deciding exams in the next 2 months
it takes a few months, you should feel better , just continue to take your daily dose,
In her first video, she mentioned how it is important to take Vitamin K and magnesium as well
10,000 UI of vitamin D!!!! 😂 I bet your doing cart wheels out of bed!!! 🤪🤪🤪
I wish 😅
Thanks a lot for the update. It's very helpful.
You may want to add 500mg calcium daily.
Most grateful to you for introducing me to Hugh dosage Vit D3_therapy.
No that is suicide ! Anytime you do calcium with d it’s dangerous especially calcium carbonate. You want to decrease your calcium when taking vitamin d and avoid dairy completely. All side effects of d3 is calcium related. Once you’re off the supplements and doing natural d3 from sun and food you can do calcium then
If you do, don't use the form calcium carbonate.
how long until your mental health/depression went away after supplementation?
and how long until your thinking got clearer?
For that it took a few months to completely go away.
I was STARVING the other day for the first time in a long time. My vitamin D was so low that I wasn't eating because my body wasn't functioning properly. Since I've been on 50,000iu of Vitamin D weekly, I'm actually hungry but I'm also losing weight.
