I am not even sure why they are going down that controversial route.

Lovely. Someone without a bachelors degree practicing medicine without a license.

Did you read it? He called his sisters doctor and asked for his advice and then followed it. That's what the hero med student's 'quick thinking' was, making a phone call (granted, the call was to a doctor who specialized in Lyme disease rather than a GP).

Those supplements do not cause nausea.

What are your blood levels of vitamin D?

The problem, as I see it, is that many MDs who hate vitamins and nutrition, yet know next to nothing about them, will still bash them when given the opportunity.

No idea. I’ve gone back through all my blood work the past few years and don’t see a Vit D analysis. I was insufficient on B12 and take a supplement for that.

You have to ask for it, because it is not a standard test. It should be a standard test, and why it isn’t, with so many people deficient (and everyone told to slather on sunscreen), should be the subject of a Congressional inquiry. In reality you should get that Vit D test before you supplement with the D3.

Check out the Vitamin D Council (by John Cannell MD) for the best info. This info will in all likelihood be different from what your MD tells you.

The story states that the HCQ and zpacks had little effect in his mom’s case.
