found out yesterday that I have a huge Vit D deficiency also - like Bhuvi. never go out in sun anymore so, go figure. had to get a bottle of that super D that she has and it cost $40! for 100 pills tho and only take once a week, altho, when I told Bhuvi she said her Dr. realized right away it takes a lot more to get you to where you belong than once a week once you are so low like we were. we'll see. I may also try to get out into sun a little more for heavens sake! I have not read all the bad things about the deficiency for real, but glanced at them and it is amazing - many of the symptoms I have had for a long time - of course. but no one ever checked that. I know one thing is they say that for the absorption of calcium it is really necessary, so maybe all these years, I have not been absorbing my calcium well either and why arthritis and bones so bad and thyroid cancer! ugh... anyhow, took the first pill last night awhile before bed and woke up around 2am with the worst headache I have had in years! just there, inside my head, hurting really bad. yet could go back to sleep. I think it was there for an hour and I knew it but was so tired from previous night no sleep that just went through it. when awoke at 5:30 had night sweats but no headache. it does seem like a lot of one type of vitamin to take all at once, but not sure if that is why I had the headache or not. I guess I will have to look up in my thyroid book and the stuff Bhuvi sent me about it. Dr. also said my TSH was still low so that makes sense with my lethargy, feeling badly, and still this huge amount of weight not getting any better. Will see Dr. Charatz on Tues and figure he will up the pills for that! THANK GOD for the older Dr. gentleman who told me to do this before my next surgery! Without him, I would not have, most likely, as no one seems to care or think about it (meaning my "health care professionals") and would not have scheduled all this unless I had that form and pushed it and asked the blood draw person about the TSH test. Now I have about 6 weeks to try to get these levels up more before I need every ounce of self to heal my next knee. thank goodness am not working either. I would be a mess right now. Only Krsna can take care of me properly and thankfully He gives me tools to do so regularly within my instincts!
sometimes I do wonder if my instincts were better, would some of this all been avoided so long ago! oh well, that is the past and this is the now. my karma and bodily aging. still so much better or easier than so many other people. I am sure I deserve a lot worse! i do want to go around proclaiming to everyone I know tho to have their thyroid and Vit D levels checked regularly whether the Dr. tells you to or not!
