Saw the recent thread on Vit-D. Here's my problem and maybe this is something obvious but I'm at a loss. The last time it was checked (many months ago, maybe a year) I showed low D but felt perfectly fine. I never would have known. Not a major low factor, just slight. Anyway, he gave me an Rx for D3 and I took it. This is where things get weird.
I got a metallic taste in my mouth which, no big deal really but also going out into the sun made me majorly nauseous. Just felt awful. Obviously I don't want to have low D but I'm not sure what to do. And I've seen for years people taking high doses of D. This was 5,000iu/day.
Is this a 'if it's not broke don't fix it' thing or is there something I'm missing?
Those symptoms immediately disappeared a couple days after stopping the Vit-D3.
Thanks in advance for any help.
