Earlier, today I got a call from my neuro about a blood test I had last week when I went for my 6 month check-up she wanted to check my Vitamin D level. And she said my level was very low so she prescribed Vit D2 50,000 units,I take one softgel once a week for 6 weeks and then one pill once a month until finished,and then in 8 weeks she do another blood test to check the levels. She's also has me taking calcium pills one pill twice a day. It's kinda scary I've been doing research on this and low levels of vit D and the higher risk of breast cancer and now I really don't want to make a appointment for my first mammagram I've been putting it off for a year now. MS is scary enough for me thank you. I'm just wondering if maybe this is partly why I got MS I know there is a connection with low levels of Vit D and MS.See when I was a little kid I was always out in the sun we had a pool and I was as brown as a bear in the summertime but when I got older I just didn't go out in the sun that much because I burn very easy. I would really like to have your guys opinion on the subject. Thanks Kristi.
