Hi, I'm checking in regarding some accumulating symptoms
that I've been told might be vitamin D deficiency. I have an
appointment with MD tomorrow morning.
Started few weeks ago with eyelid twitch. Heart
palpitations came on, last few days, and they're fairly
pronounced. I have dry funny taste in my mouth. Calves and
other muscles starting to twitch a bit too, especially
after walking around. The lower part of my legs feel like
they're vibrating. My resting heart rate and BP are lowest
in summer, and highest now. This annual cycle is in it's
third year.
Not much milk in my diet, maybe 6oz (2%) every other
day. Salmon 2x/week. A calcium/magensium/zinc
supplement (1000mg/400mg/30mg) or might
be(400mg/1000mg/30mg, can't recall).
I'm off to get some cod liver oil and hit the tanning booth
per recommendation of friend (physicist/researcher) that is
part of UV/ Vit D study. I live at 40 degrees N (NH), moved
here 3 years ago (grew up in Delaware) and have seen no
significant UV exposure for several months.
Hope it's not all in my head..... See what doc says tomorrow
and following blood work.
Comments are greatly, greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Mike
