I'm betting...I get that vitamin D horse pill in my and it should help with alot of these things going on.

CAN YOU BELEIVE...

postive blood work

Osteopenia and Porosis,

deficiencies in zinc, A, D and E

Teeth issues - soft enamel

and DH

6 months gluten free....and the blood work is back to normal, and all my levels that indicated inflamation are normal but all I have is this lingering Zinc and D issue.

That to me says, supplement me and see how that works.

Why the biopsy still.....why do they NEED that.

And...wow...if my D ,level is 8 they better get me something fast,,,,he says he needs to see how much he can put me on.....

ugggggggghhhhhhhhhh

I told my doc i wanted to get a blood test to check my vitamin levels, and he only ordered a B12 lab......What blood test did you get to check all of those vitamins?

I am unable to retain Vitamin D. In the beginning I was taking 50,000 units weekly. I did that for 8 mths. Then my dr. told me I could back it down to 50,000 units once mthly. I have been taking that for a year and a half now. He said that I would probably have to take it forever. Also my iron level has been dangerously low for at least 6 mths. now. My dr. does not know why. He is sending me to another dr. to see if he can find out why I cannot retain iron. It is just one thing after another.

If you've got a vit D deficiency I think it is up to you to educate yourself, this is another area doctors are really trailing behind in.

A great place to start is with Open Original Shared Link

It is so important. They're finding a huge link between insufficient D levels and a lot of life-threatening diseases like heart disease and cancer.

The primary cause of low vitamin D is low sun exposure.

If you want to raise your vitamin D naturally, go outside at mid-day with as little clothing as possible for as long as you can without getting sunburned. Don't wear sunscreen because this blocks vitamin D absorption.

Slowly increase the amount of time you stay outside until you can stay outside for 1 hour everyday without getting burned.

This will rapidly raise your vitamin D levels without having to use supplements.

Jesse, good advice, but some of us live up north where it's only 40 degrees (or colder for some)! ;)

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
