low Vitamin D and 431 platelet count

Posted , 3 users are following.

I just found out that I am vitamin D deficient, my levels were 18 my Dr. Now has me on 50k units a week I took another blood test and my platelet levels were 431, according to their lab that is high but when you look online the normak range says 150-450. Has anyone else experienced elevated platelet levels due to low vitamin D?

    My vit D was 26 and my platelet level 536. Taking vit D supplement in three months my vit D went up to 52.

      Yes my platelet count went down to 365. The supplements seem to have made a difference, I am now waiting for some sun so I can sit outside and get more vit D.
