So my doctor has told me I have a very severe vitamin d deficiency, to the point where I'm taking 1500mg a week for three weeks, but didn't really explain what that can do to the body. She did mention I shouldn't take any other vitamins so I don't accidentally overdose on vitamin d. I was just wondering if there is anything I can do after I'm off the pills to keep it at a normal rate. I don't really drink a lot of milk, and I can't STAND fish. The smell alone makes me almost sick so the cod liver oil is out since it makes you smell like a fish.
I also have a low white blood cell count that they are retesting in a couple weeks to check but I'm under the vague impression it might be because of the vitamin d. I just don't know what's going on, anyone have any non-medical type advice or a place I can find some info for myself on what might be happening? Could this be because of the vitamin d? I have an appointment the 27th but until then I'm in a bit of a panicky state. I hear low blood cell count and instantly think HIV and AIDS because my father has it though I'm fairly sure that's not the case since if it was that low they would have had me come in right away.
