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!

- @duxx1234 Forward momentum!
- That’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! x
- Thanks @onemargie Yes, fingers crossed, hoping that the Taxol,will be better! x
- Hi 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. X
- Well 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.
- Thank 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?
- Excellent. Woohoo on finishing AC. Halfway through.
