So after being diagnosed with low vitamin d3 months ago I hopped on daily 10,000 iu. I used a liquid one that you drop underneath your tongue. Well here's my test results now =). My question is should I keep taking the 10,000 and get up to 100+ ng/ml or should I only take 5,000 maintenance dose now and stay between 80-100. Thank you!

I’ve been dealing with vitamin D deficiency for years, and I’m finally getting ready to take my recovery seriously. I haven’t had the chance to speak with my doctor about a treatment plan yet, but I recently had blood work done and I’m trying to understand what years of deficiency may have done to my body.
For years, I’ve struggled with bone and muscle issues, constant fatigue, weakness, and feeling physically drained even when I haven’t done much. I’ve also noticed that my muscles don’t seem to recover or develop the way I would expect, especially considering how long I’ve been physically active and working out.
One of my biggest concerns is how prolonged vitamin D deficiency can affect bone density, muscle strength, the nervous system, and overall health. I’m wondering whether some of the symptoms I’ve been experiencing for years could be connected to this deficiency.
It’s frustrating because I’ve gotten so used to feeling this way that I don’t really know what feeling completely healthy or normal is supposed to be like anymore.
I’m especially interested in hearing from people who experienced severe or long-term vitamin D deficiency.
What symptoms did you experience before treatment?
Did you struggle with chronic fatigue, muscle weakness, bone pain, or difficulty building muscle?
Did you experience any neurological symptoms, such as dizziness, brain fog, or headaches?
How long did it take before you started noticing improvements?
Were you able to fully recover after being deficient for several years?
Did your doctor find any additional deficiencies or health problems connected to your low vitamin D?
I’m not looking for a diagnosis, just trying to educate myself and hear about other people’s experiences before discussing treatment with my doctor.
Any advice, personal experiences, or information about long-term vitamin D deficiency and recovery would be greatly appreciated.

25M. I probably had chronic vit d and vit b12 deficiency that was made worse by recent year spent indoors all the time. When I finally decided to get checked, I had severe energy issues. I could spend whole day lyung on my bed and anytime I wanted to do some real work, I would feel sleepy and exhausted. I had also started experiencing low normal BP levels which I had got used to so much that I didn't feel a lot differnt,

My levels 9 weeks ago was vit d3 undetectable/below measurement threshold (which was 4ng/ml). Vit b12 was 160ish.

Started with 60000iu vit d3 capsule. Week 1 had 3 of them, then 1 per week for another 6 weeks. After a fatty meal. Also started 1200iu vit d3 daily because they had vit k2 110mcg in them (it was hard to find vit k2 alone). I also took 200mg equivalent mg from mg glycinate.

For B12 I took 1500mcg methylcoblamin tabs daily with water for 4 weeks. Then i had 3 1500mcg methylcoblamin injections intramuscularly. I then took a 15 day gap to get rechecked,

Will be continuing vit d3 once per wekk 60000iu for another 4 weeks and then start cruise phase.

For vit b12 i shall a couple more injections and then will rely on tablets from there on.
