just wondered if anyone had experience with this. My calcium is slightly below the normal range and my vit d is very low, should be above 75, mine is 23. From my understanding vit d enables calcium to be absorbed so I can see the link. The lab notes suggest that I go on vit d supplement but the GP has put me on a calcium supplement instead (which also contains some vit d). The packet though advises not to take these longer than 2 weeks so am a bit confused. Surely if I take a vit d supplement instead which contains 200% of the RDA of vit d then my calcium will automatically improve too?
The background to this was horrible numbness particularly in my left hand and fatigue and dizziness. This may be due to calcium deficiency. But I'm also on 10mg carbimazole for hyperthyroidism!! Any thoughts really appreciated. Have not felt right since having dc2 last year. Oh to feel normal again :(
