People with MS seem to acquire Vitamin D deficiency. Glad it was caught and being corrected. You should have more energy. ??

Yes, mine was also at 7 when first diagnosed. Gave me 50,000IU every 3 days. Came up to just within normal after 2 months and after another 3 months he dropped me back to once a month. I found I didn't feel as good at once a month so I switched myself to 5000 every day. Go back in Oct for another check. Hope you start to feel the difference soon :)

I have no idea my pre-dx level. My deficiency was discovered by my allergy dr. 6 yts later. After taking 50,000 mg pills and not noticing any changes I stopped taking the pills. I also moved at that time and new allergy dr wasn't interested in test levels. Didn't think it was worth fighting.
