I just got my labs back and my vitamin D is low.  I currently take D3 1000 iu a day plus there is D in the calcium and D in my multi.  How much do you guys take?

My vitamin D was very low too. My dietitian told me to take 5000 IU per day and if I brought the 2000 IU then I needed to take 2-3 per day.
