I (F23) have been taking 60K iu d3 every week for about 1½ months after getting tested with severely low vit-D at 5.8 ng/ml. I was naturally prescribed a very high d3 dosage to be taken every week, a shot, everyday maintainance (1000 iu), and some multivitamins. I have definitely moticed some improvement over the weeks but I have it's just that each week, right after i take my 60k Cholecalciferol I get a wave of lethargy that stays for the day. Its not too bad that I cannot move, but its certainly noticable. My joints and the muscle around feels heavy and I feel tinges of ache here and there. But I am fine the other days.

Is this normal? Or should i speak to a doctor again? I was afraid my dosage is too high but people have been reassuring me that its normal. Would be grateful for some reassurance/assistance!

I (23F) m having weird stab like pain on my left temple that lasts for like less then 1 second or exactly a second and then vanishes. It doesnt hurt to touch it but I causing for enough anxiety to trigger an anxiety attack. I do have chronically stiff shoulders and guilty of not sitting in good posture but this headache is a new thing even for me. I have been anxious for some days for really no reason that I can name. Have been in a condtant ebb and flow of anxiety rushes. I am so tired please tell me this is normal and nothing to raise my cortisol over

On the 4th May I (23F) got my blood work results back and I found out I was severely deficient at 5.8 ng/mL. My doctor prescribed a d3 injection with a dosage of 600,000 IU the same day and I got it. I was also told to take 1000 IU everyday which I do as well. Along with that I was prescribed 60,000 IU every week.

I know my level was way too low and high dosage is required to bring them up quick but after looking through many reddit posts and Ive noticed that not everyone is administered with this many dosages. I hope I am wrong tho.

I am generally a very anxious person when it comes to health so thinking about it has been stressing me out for days. I would love to know how was the experience for people with d levels that were similar to mine

I feel so sad, lonely and lost. I feel like such a burden on my parents for worrying them again. July-December of 2025 was something I would never want to relive again. I was in so much stress, it made me physically sick. I was having breakouts all over my face. My immunity was at an all time low. By the end of december, I started taking medicines and finally felt like a new person again. Propanolol literally saved me. I was thoroughly enjoying living but all it took was one bad menstrual cycle and I am back to square one.

After my period ended, my iron level was low. and my bp reading was slightly lower than my baseline. Unfortunately, I have OCD and health anxiety, and I find myself again stuck in the same frame of thought unable to escape. Last night was horrible, I was shaking again, thinking horrible thoughts. I just wish to be better again but I dont want to take medicines. I feel scared that I might start depending upon them and my body will get used to it.

I cannot help but feel like life is so bleak. Things were finally looking hopeful and I even stopped checking reddit posts. People around me get to bounce back from things all the time but why cant I.
