Low Vitamin D with RNY

I have been trying to bring my Vitamin D up with little success. What should I take and how many?

I take 100,000 I u, every da. My new endocrinologist recently told me to take it with the fat heaviest meal of the day as it is fat soluble

.

Thanks. The highest I been in the last five years is 39 and last time was 24. I had been taking 2000 units a day.

you need way more than 2000 then. Even with 100,000 I still run slightly low.

I get 50,000 out from vita lady.com and take two at a time.

Do you just take a small sip of water before during or after that fat heaviest meal to swallow it at the same time as your meal?

My dry D is so tiny, I just pop it in once I've chewed my food and swallow it. No need for liquid.

yes

I take Vitamin Shop liquid D3. I need 20,000 mg a day to stay in 60-80 range. I was Vit D deficient for 20 years prior to finding this. Docs kept telling me not to take more than 5000. No matter what tablet I used it never worked.

Thanks Cynthia

When my D got low - I bought the 50,000 IU dry D. I took that daily for a week then 2-3 a week. Initially I took 3-4 times but that was too much. To maintain 50-70 D, I take 3 times per week in winter, and often 2 times I summer.

Taken without fat - dry D is supposed to be water soluble. I take it far away from any fat, to get max absorption.
