My Vitamin D tested at 18. I'm taking 50,000 IU of Rx D2 weekly, and 1200 IU of D3 daily.
Symptoms are primarily being weak. Faintness. I'm a high energy person, so this has put a damper in my life.
I'm seeking info on guesstimating how long I will feel this way. Anyone?

Hi and WELCOME to our Kidney Stone Community. I'm not a doctor, but do have too much experience with kidney stones. For me, I'd get pings and pangs in my kidney as well as microhematuria (blood you cannot see by eye) in my urine when I have stones. I've also had the flank pain you describe .. for me it's been in the lower back. I hope with lots of water your stones move out for you uneveventfully.
Please keep in touch. From what I've read stones <5.
calcium stones are not directly correlated to vit d or calcium, i haven t checked all the studies on this but studies shown that vit d deficiency promotes more kidneys stones
the main reason of kidneys stones is probably vit k deficiency, if you want to prevent use vit k2 mk7 200-600mcg daily, i use 600mcg because i take a very high dose of d3
I am very hard to diagnose, I was told. I have been seeing an Endo for normal calcium levels, Very high PTH levels and very low Vitamin D. Sestamibi scans (2) show a type E or a Type C (right sided) parathyroid adenoma. I have been on periods of 50,000 Units of Vitamin D2 for weeks at a time (toxic side effects) and then off and retested. I cannot get the vitamin D higher than 26. My range is 6 to 26. PTH runs from 60 to 130. My ENDO and his collegue will not go out of the box....
Calcium can go to places in your body that is not good for your health such as building up in your blood vessels and causing some types of kidney stones and can even leach calcium out of your bones. This vitamin makes sure that does not happen and that calcium goes into the bones and teeth where it belongs.
Most experts agree 5,000 to 10,000 units a day are safe. Toxicity causes absorption of too much calcium resulting in
Taking Vitamin D2 is harmful. Even if it raises your levels it won't keep them up.
Magnesium is needed in addition to daily Vitamin D3. It'll balance your Calcium. Taking Vitamin D will use more of your magnesium.
You also need to eat/drink foods with potassium to balance your magnesium.
Once your D levels are raised, you need a maintenance dose to keep them at a steady level. D should be tested twice a year.
supplementation over that may cause a risk for toxicity (weak muscles, weak bones, excessive bleeding, and kidney stones). It can be taken once a day. Vitamin D is available through our foods - Fortified milk, breakfast cereals, egg yolks, fatty fish, and fish oils. Sit at a window with the sun shining in for about 1/2 hour (few times a week) and that will help you get enough Vitamin D. You did not mention your Calcium levels and suggest getting it checked, too.

I went in a few months ago for recently worsening problems of neck muscle spasms, constantly feeling tired, crabby, eating a lot because I was so tired. We tried vitamin D3 at 50,000 a week which after 2 weeks made me feel 99% better, amazing even. I noticed my muscles had been weak where before I thought I was just out of shape. It was amazing. After 1 month my neck spasms even went away.My appetite went back to normal, my headaches went away.
There is some risk of damaging the laryngeal nerve and I try to weight the risk of getting kidney stones and/or brittle bones later in life (that is not 100%) to the risk of complications of the surgery (that is not 0%). I am not in the U.S. and I have no idea what center has what complication rates.
The - admittedly small - study here http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.
So why haven't they scheduled you for surgery? Parathyroid tumors never get better. You may need to take this issue to a higher authority because this is slowly killing you. You may even need to seek medical help outside of the military.
Let me tell you a little of my story...I began having female hormone issues at age 36. By the time I was 38, they were much worse.
Drink plenty of water! The following is for Kidney stones
There are nutrients you need to add—and to limit. Vitamin A (not betacarotene) promotes healthy functioning of the urinary tract, so people who are deficient in it sometimes form kidney stones more easily than others. You’ll find vitamin A in most good general
multiple vitamin and mineral supplements (which you and everyone to take even when you
supplement with individual nutrients).
Has anyone here with kidney stones tried vitamin B6 and magnesium to prevent new stones from forming?
I read a study that concluded that taking 50 mg of B6 daily with 300 mg of magnesium oxide (one of the least absorbable forms of magnesium) will prevent future kidney stones. I also read that potassium and B6 does the same. Perhaps the magnesium works because potassium is better absorbed if there is sufficient magnesium.
