I think I was on 10,000 IU perscription D because my D levels were so low, but it was one pill once a week for a month. I don't remember being any itchier than normal, but then again I'm always so damn itchy from allergies that I'm not sure I would even notice.

Well, 10,000 IU once a week would come out to less than 2,000 IU a day, which is well within recommended ranges.

And I think for people who are very deficient, doctors prescribe 50,000 IU either once a week or once a month, though for a limited time.

Again, you have to remember that I am a FREAK with paradoxical reactions to things that most people have zero problems with.

I've got sinus ick, and I've been taking Benedryl and NSAIDs. I'm debating going to the store tonight, rather than tomorrow (Pros: I will feel less judged by the people who are at Kroger at 11:00 PM than 11:00 AM. I can get decongestants [my shake-it-loose-then-flush-it-out plan is great in theory, bit, in practice, the pipes are too clogged, if you will] Cons: I would have to put on outside pants and drive a car.)

I may take another Benedryl (I've not needed more than 1 before, and rarely take any at all) and hope for the best.

Holy cow. I wonder if people glow when they're on that much.

They can just point at other people and transmit vitamin D to them through sheer force of will.

It's the old pseudoephedrine-based Actifed formula, and it's the only place I can get it now. Each tablet has 60mg pseudoephedrine, though.

pseudoephedrine is the only thing that really works for me when it comes to my sinuses. I need to get some tomorrow. Fucking meth heads. They started all of this shit to get the good drugs to make it harder for dealers to make meth, but it hasn't worked. For fuck's sake, they are making the shit IN THE STORE

Just give me my damned Tylenol Sinus! Or, failing that, my generic Kirkland brand cold drugs (so. money. 144 pills for like $7 and they were just as good as Tylenol)

Holy cow. I wonder if people glow when they're on that much.

I'm on 40,000 every two weeks. No glowing involved.

Yeah, so you say.

Yeah, so you say.

She points at people and they suddenly get a boost in vitamin D levels.

I like the dark way too much to risk glowing in it.
