Yes I too was dx with severe vit D def. I thought I was going crazy and literally dying!! After several misdiagnoses I finally found an excellent internist and he found the culprit. It has been the worst time if my life with crazy thoughts horrible pain dizziness vision change and def anxiety. I am on 50,000 IUs twice a week it has only been one month two more up oh but I'm feeling better just two days ago. The only thing is my reflux is like a torch to the esophagus I think this is related because I have never experienced it to this magnitude!! On mist days it's hard to eat solids but my doc said that this should help with my esophagitis. So I feel your pain hang in there! These have been the months if my life!!!
Unbelievable but true. You might want to check out the symptoms thread. It's pretty eye opening. Vdd can effect any system in the body. Crushing fatigue is definitely one of the common symptoms. Sometimes ppl feel worse before getting better.. Something to be aware of. Glad you're getting treated!
Hey there, I was just diagnosed with vitamin d deficiency about 2 months ago and it's just awful. I'm not a guy that scares easily but I'm constantly paranoid that something awful is going to happen. My doctor thinks it's just the vit d but I just can't shake the anxiety. How long did it take you to feel better? Where you having panic attacks? The symtoms you described are almost identical to mine. Any insight anybody has would be most appreciated.
Just seen your post. I am currently going through my second round of a vit d defiency. Yes it does cause severe fatigue. When I was first diagnosed I had arm soreness , lifting a glass of tea would hurt. It eventually was like a pinball machine inside my body. A pain or sensations would be here or there . Dizzyness was awful. Always felt off balance an brain fog. Had trouble concentrating. Heart palpatations. Vision changes. They thought I had ms. Went to neuro who spent a good bit of time explaining what vit d can do. I thought was going nuts. That was 2012. After got the 50000 iu week in me for couple months it all improved and felt like me again. My pc took me off the d an I was good all 2013. Feb of 2014 started getting symptoms back an I thought was something else. Went to my pc he had series of cts, colonsoscopy etc done. All ok. I asked could be vit d again. He said no. So last weeki went in and asked for vit d test. Awaiting results anxiosly. I have already started supplementing an the pains are going away. Now I mainly have dizzyness brain fog an fatigue. Cant wait to feel better. Hope you feel better soon an its hard but try to be patient it will help.
