After getting out of the hospital I was sooo tired. I mean don't want to do anything, can't keep my eyes open, forcing myself to do things even tho all i wanted to do was go to bed. At first I thought it was the stay a the hospital, it only got worse after I went up North and on the way home I almost fell asleep while driving! While working i was worked with eye closed.
I went to my doctor on Monday and told him everything they did to me in the hospital and told him my only complaint now is that i was extremely tired. He said he was going to test my iron levels and my Vitamin D levels...He says alot of people are coming in with low vitamin D levels. Meanwhile he gave me a B-12 shot...It did not do much for me. I would come home from work everyday passing out on the couch by 6:00 or 7:00 pm.
He got my results on Thursday and called me that night. He said "Your iron levels are just fine but your vitamin D levels are practically non existent" He said "levels are supposed to be around 30 and yours is like 11" So he told me to go and get a bottle of vitamin D and take them everyday!!!
I'm hoping to get some relief from this soon, I was talking to another lady and she said she was having pains in her bones and found out it was from low vitamin D. I have been having pains, it all could all be related to eachother and here i just thought i was getting old. I will let ya know if there is any changes with this.
So that's the reason why I have not been on much, I've been sleeping my butt off..lol

That does not sound fun. I'm sending you good thoughts and wishing you better.
Listening to the doctor sounds like a good idea so make sure you do. Get better soon.
Yes, and I was diagnosed with the same vitamin deficiency, and I am just starting on D also, lets see if both of us see some results.
Hope things are on the improve for you, ma'am :)
You know, I think I'm going to get my levels checked. I never thought of vitamin D. Glad your doctor figured it out and listen to him. Hope your feeling better soon.

Make sure you take vitamin D3, cholecalciferol, not D2.
