If I'm incorrect, Please let me know, but, as I remember, Vitamins K, A, D, E are the ones that can become toxic, if too much. I always check with my pharmacist, bc vitamins, or any supplement, can interact with meds.

I’m having trouble finding an easy way to convert these units of measure. It’s probably just me 🥴🤷‍♀️

My most recent draws were:
41.8 ng/mL, normal range (Phone number can only be seen by the question and answer creators) pg/mL, normal range (Phone number can only be seen by the question and answer creators)

So, I used to take prescription strength Vitamin D. Which is way cheaper by the way. And I do an over the counter B12.

Unsolicited opinion coming 🙀
Since you are on the lower end of B12, I would personally supplement. You can over do it, but it’s hard to since we excrete the excess in our urine. 🙃
Vitamin D, I’d ask your doc how high of a supplement you could take. Cause that one you can overdo 😅

You might also want to read about methylated versions as well.

I was taking a prenatal that had methylated minerals and vitamins. My Vitamin D came back the highest it’s ever been and it’s a considerably lower dose than the prescription strength I was taking. Go figure 🤷‍♀️

Ok thank you I think I’ll probably go back to 90mg as it’s not different on a higher dose

Be very careful with Cymbalta. You can't stop it abruptly. Also the withdrawal can be awful if you go off it.
