Hi. Sorry this isn't diabetes related but wondered if you helpful lot have come across anything similar.
I have had a lot of stomach upsets and nausea since Christmas and put this down to the usual winter bugs. Went to the gp last week to ask for a general mot lot of blood tests to see if they identified anything out of line.
The GP looked at my last lots of blood and commented that my vitamin d level of 181 (she didn't quote units) was very high although still in normal range (from 20-200). Since the appointment I have googled excessive vitamin d and it sounds exactly like the symptoms I have. She suggested dropping it to a 1/4 of current dose which I will do (current dose is 10000 iu a day which I triple checked at the time as it seemed VERY high and I have taken this for over a year).
Just wondered if anyone else had experienced too much vitamin d and what did they feel like?
Thanks
