Didn't have time to read the article yet, but my neuro and GP told me "1000 IU of D3 daily".

My neuro does monthly blood work for Copaxone (Mr. Thorough) which includes testing thyroid and CBC (kinda glad he does this!), but I'm wondering, what can too much Vitamin D do to a person?

Edit: reading now. I am sitting here with my mouth open, reading “The active form of vitamin D, [1,25-D] is a potent immunomodulatory seco-steroid” meaning that it is a steroid-like molecule which is able to control the activity of the immune system.”

Vitamin D supplements = steroid? What? LOL!! Cherie halp!
