vit d3 82ng/ml and lowering alt, not on therapy


my sister just got tests results and the patern of hbvdna, alt looks inversely correlated with vitd 25oh>80ng/ml, this can be confirmed by time, she now has for the first time alt 40, hbvdna stable at around 200.000iu/ml, no liver damage 4.5kpa, hbsag around 18.000iu/ml

probably vitamin d is able to protect liver despite hbvdna detactable keeping alt 40, she will be checking fibroscan and hbsag next month

she has normal calcium as usual and creatinine and check every 3 months with vit d.she has daily vit d3 5000-8000iu

Yes,

Stef has constantly been advising me to boost my d3 level to improve my HBSag and HBVdna level. Around 2 months back when i checked for d3 level it was only 6.8 ng/ml. So I took Calcirol (60,000 IU) - 1 /week and Shelcal-HD - 1 daily, I have also been taking Probiotic on and of. Now, after two months, my d3 level has come to 40.30 ng/ml with all the Liver Function tests normal (as shown above). I feel much better (though there is still some giddiness at times)

Now, as adivsed by stef I will stop Calcium and continue only with vit d3 and test for d3 level after 15-20 days. Meawhile  I will be cheking my HBSag level to see the impact of improved vit d3 level.

I checked my vit d3 level after 2 months of medication. It has improved to a level of (40.30 ng/ml).

I have followed following medication. Calcirol - 60,000 IU (1/week) for six weeks + 1 Shelcal HD daily.

Now I am continuing with the  schedule: Calcirol - 60,000 IU (1/month) for six months + 1 Shelcal HD daily.

This is the shcedule my doctor has prescribed. I do not know why he is giving Shelcal - HD (it has Calcuim -500mg and vit d3 - 500 IU).

Good part it my Liver Function test has come to normal -
AST - 28.0
ALT - 31.0
S. Bilirubin Total : 0.61
Other tests  are also normal
S. Creatine - 1.0
S. Calcium - 9.1

Though, My overall health has improved, but I still feel some giddiness. Doctor says it will take some time to improve since I was suffering from chronic deficiency of Vit d3. (any views Stef ?)

After 15 days i will check my HBSag level and let you know for your further guidance.

i do believe about danube fish but i think there is a lot of pollutants in those waters...if they check fish oil for pollutants and then filter it can be a very good product
i only take the filtered fish oil for omega3 because most fish has poluttants for sure
