She says its very low -this despite me taking some Vitamin D supplements already. I feel she is really onto something here. Still, I asked her to lower the prescription dosage some and then raise it later, because I fear taking such high levels of anything might be too much too fast.

So, I will be taking 5000 mg of vitamin D per day and then return in 2 months to get my levels read.

Does anyone here know if my Vitamin D levels (of 15) is really a concern?
Please help. I appreciate any advice.

On a positive note, I feel this doctor is really trying to help me, and indeed, it seems she already found something that many other doctors have overlooked, including 2 neurologists.
