Hi, I was prescribed Vit D2 1.25 mg once a week for 8 weeks. So far I have taken 3 pills for 3 weeks. My arms are aching me and I had a couple of days of urinating a lot. Is this something that can happen when taking this? My doctor said my blood work showed low vit D and wrote me out a prescription for this. Trying to hang in there!!!

Dr. Said no at 4.1 it was okay. The lab said it was low. She has put me on D2 for 4 wks. Then cont with 800 ml every other day. I will request a copy of the past 3 lab test I had done for the last 3 wks.

Yes, you can absolutely breastfeed while you are taking your vitamin D. In fact, if you are low right now, you SHOULD have been checked while you were pregnant and almost certainly should have been taking that dose MONTHS ago so that your baby was also sufficient in Vitamin D.

Be sure that you are ALSO supplementing your baby, as vitamin D takes time to build up in your body, and your baby will not be getting any vitamin D from your breastmilk until you have been vitamin D sufficient for many months. See my page on http:/­/­www.easy-immune-health.com/­vitamin-d-and-breastfeeding.html

Doctors believe that breastmilk is a poor source of vitamin D, but this is incorrect. It's an excellent source of Vitamin D... but only if mothers are sufficient in Vitamin D.

Yes I was losing weight that I needed to lose, but after taking vitamin D2 1.25 (50,000 units) once a week, it seemed like I was always hungry, wanting something. I have been taking these vitamins for a few months now. No one told me to eat with them. I ran out the last two weeks, and started getting horrible pains in my ankle bones. Like a Charlie horse, but just in my ankles, woke up and couldn't even get up for awhile, till I finally quit hurting!! But I kept getting pain all throughout the day and night. Finally my prescription was picked up this evening and I took one. Going to see if pains continue or stop. Do you know if you have to be slowly taken off this vitamin?

I have recently developed a spotty blistery itching rash on different parts of my body, stomach, leg and arm. The only thing that has changed is I just started taking Vitamin D2 1.25 mg / 50,000 IU. Could this be a reaction to it?
