Thank you for the reply....but do you know if the high dose that I'm taking could cause my symptoms and if so, how long do they usually last? I have stopped taking it for now.
Are you (or the subject of the question) male or female?

The upper limit for Vitamin D supplement is 2000IU daily and you were consuming much more than that. Toxicity from this vitamin can cause hypercalciuria, hypercalcemia, bone and soft tissue calcification, and kidney stones. Suggest you go to your MD and get blood work done to determine if you have vitamin D toxicity or not. Then you can be treated correctly for your symptoms.
