@KA9ha calcium starts to fall because of taking vitamin D? I didn't know. That's why someone suggested me calcium and D together in one pill.

@Pomegranate thats Chliocalciferol 60K or Calciway..

@KA9ha no. most of the time at home. It's not for me, it's for a person with cancer. Doctors didn't check her vitamin D at all, I took her for blood test for vitamin D. that's why I am not asking doctors for the dosage.

@Pomegranate you are a professional nurse ? or that was elder relative ? At least the lab tests are always covered for a prof advice on the reactions

@KA9ha I am not nurse and yes elder relative. I just suspected that her vitamin D might be low and the blood test proved it.

@Pomegranate see the medical extract:::Vitamin D deficiency has been found to be associated with a variety of cancers, including prostate, multiple myeloma, colorectal and breast cancer. Several studies have shown vitamin D levels to have an inverse relation with cancer mortality, while others have considered it a potential risk factor. Vitamin D is believed to influence cancer prevalence, risk and survival; hence the need to assess vitamin D levels in cancer. Although numerous studies have been conducted to demonstrate vitamin D deficiency as a risk factor for cancer, relatively few have studied its prevalence
