Chronic Vitamin D Deficiency And High Inflammation Markers

Hi,
I know we have a thread about vitamin D deficiency by @SGBV. Just wanted to start a post only about chronic low vitamin D and high inflammation.

I have very low vitamin D and been taking high supplements for around 6-7 years. It never crossed 30. I have tried both d2 high dose supplements and OTC d3 +k2.
No changes yet. I check my vitamin D every 3 months. A
My level was 34, 3 months ago and that was the first time ever it crossed 30. I am seeing rheumatologist for my health issues. He gave me an active form of D along with high dose d2 and d3 supplements. I was assuming the value increased because of that.
They told me to continue the same medications until it gets better.

I rechecked the D last week and the value was way lower than the previous result. It comes down to 21. My Dr is so confused and not sure why my values are decreasing irrespective of so many medications. He said he don't know the answer and just asked me to continue all the medications.

Anyone have chronic low D? What helped you to get back to normal?and after how many years?

I also have some health issues for which I am seeing the rheumatologist. He do check my inflammation markers every 3 months. It's high since end of 2021. Been taking medicines and anti inflammatory diet, it's not getting normal. It was so high when I tested in 2021. It's reducing by 2-3 values but not within normal range yet.
The normal range for that is supposed to be 0-10 whereas the Dr said It has to be below 3. Mine is at 15 now.
It was 31 when I first tested.

I am just confused of low D is causing inflammation in the body.

Any ideas or thoughts to increase the D value?

 

I will check this out. But wondering if it will cause chronic inflammation. It's been high for close to 2 years. Thanks for this perspective. I will research more on this.

 

Yeah I am talking about CRP only. I am checking CRP every 3 months and it's high. My chronic pain( still trying to find answers)started in 2020 and checked crp twice in 2020 because of the pain. It was normal and Dr checked it again in 2021 and it was high. It's high since then. It's reducing a bit, but not back to normal range yet.

Is there any other test available to check for inflammation?
Yes I do go for walk in the sun in the peak hours. May be I am not exposing the skin thoroughly. I just wear sleeveless tops and capris. I think that's not enough to get the exposure.

 

Thank you so much for the links. Will check it out.
Is there any specific type of magnesium to be taken with d3?
I don't know about the leaky gut. How to find that out?
How long did it take for you to reach 65 from 9? Did you take high dose 50000iu D2?

I do have chronic pain and no reasons found. I have been asking my rheumatologist and he couldn't find it too. He keeps checking my ana blood work to check for auto immune. I don't know if I have Lyme.

 

Thanks for the link. I don't know about lectin free diet. Will check that out.
When you say Inflammation, do you mean CRP value?
