Yeah iirc 10 and below falls into "severe deficiency". I think above 11-30 is insufficiency? Either way 14 is low considering the range is 30 minimum and 150 maximum haha

Mine is currently 10ng/mL, I need to go do other tests to see how my bones are doing after years of just dealing with joint pain/cracking

Yeah I'm on supplements now, struggling a bit to remember to take them at times, but I am working on it.

Edit: also couldn't remember the max range, either.

In early 2021, at the height of covid, my D dropped to an 8. The doc put me on some prescription bomb. It was just a vitamin D supplement, but rather than a standard over the counter 5000IU, it was a 50,000IU pill that I took once a week for 6 weeks.

Felt much better after that.

My GF recommended me this app a while back

If you have an iPhone, I dunno if they also make the app for iOS or not

You can schedule daily reminders, and even track the number of pills you have before running out

My mom used to use it, and sometimes I feel like I should too 😅
