    Was your Folate (Vitamin B9) tested as this is essential to process the B12 you were supplementing?

    hi. i think that it can take 3 months of supplementation with vitamin D3 before you feel ok.

      Hi Thank you for your comment. I am 80% feeling better . I will be completing my 3 month of supplementation on 5 March. can you tell me how much I should take vit d to maintain the level

      please discuss with your doctor about the amount that you need to take. it will depend on a number of factors eg any underlying health conditions, your blood level etc. it might even depend on your weight / age . i don't know. there is a standard here in the UK of supplementation for the general public of 10mg per day (400IU) during the winter months. but that is not for people who have seriuosly low levels which need to be raised. so if your levels are very low then you need more. your doctor knows your situation better than random people on the internet!

      before your tablets are finished you need to contact your doctor to ask what you should do next in order to maintain your levels.
