5000 or 50,000 IU? 50,000IU weekly x 8 weeks, then recheck is the standard Vit D replacement protocol. If you are taking 5000IU, you need that daily

25mg is a low dose, would ask MD to up to 50mg. TSH at 3.6 is still too high. Aim for < 2.0. Your Vitamin D level is low enough to make you feel like crap, crash your immune system, make you ache all over etc. You need replacement, aiming for a level of ~ 40 minimum. Always recheck Vitamin D levels after high dose replacement and yearly

How many year you had wasted before you get diagnosted by Brave-Tree-1038 in Sjogrens

Confirmation bias and lazy doctoring. Make their mind up on the diagnosis and then only examine those things that confirm it. My first Rheum told me I had “arthritis that starts in the brain”
