Vitamin D deficiency

Hi all, I was diagnosed back on 2006, *touch wood with no relapses since 07. Last year was the first time I had my Vit D checked (was 48 n/mol), my doc put me on 4000 ui per day and after a year it has still only risen to 55n/mol saying i need to get to 75+ but I have read conflicting reports as to what the levels should be???? does anyone have any idea??

My MS Nurse sent me a letter saying it should be between 80-150. My test had a result of 39.6!!! Hope that helps?

I know that 80 is the minimum it should be. You can get your daily dose of Vit D by exposing your wrists to the sunlight (if you are lucky to be near some!) for 20 minutes a day. I have found a great product from Holland and Barratt's that is a spray- one less tablet is a good thing in my books! By using that once a day my levels are now at 85 after a year :)
