Low Vitamin D level
Ive Just completed my last AC infusion....yay! As my vitamin D level was low I’ve also just finished taking 50,000 units (one tablet per week for 5 weeks ) and the results are that my level has gone from 37 to 93 which is great! I will start on Taxol weekly for 12 weeks on 11/4/18,so this BC show is well and truly on the road!

- duxx1234MemberThat’s wonderful! Well done, you! @kmakm but yes, it is a bit of an anticlimax until you get to that 22nd day! No celebrating here just yet, but I’m progressing through treatment which is encouraging! xSign in to react to this post

- onemargieMemberHi there @duxx1234 yes thats right one day at a time. I still take my vitamin d and calcium tablets daily to keep my levels up. Fingers crossed for you with the taxol I had mine fortnightly for 8 weeks so different to you. Biggest hug love. Margie. XSign in to react to this post
- kmakmMemberWell done @duxx1234! It's satisfying to complete these sections of treatment isn't it? Time marches on regardless but we humans like a sense of progress! I had my final chemo last week, and while it's a great relief knowing I don't have to do that again, I don't consider myself done until the end of the three week cycle. Can't wait for the new ground that 22nd day will bring.Sign in to react to this post
- duxx1234MemberThank you @primek Yes, the halfway mark is a good feeling even though I’ve got a way to go. 30 doses of radiation after Taxol! One day at a time,isn’t that what they say?Sign in to react to this post
