I take 10,000 units a day plus C plus Zinc and have for at least 15 years and have seldom been sick or for very long in all those years. Not often sick before but did go down with flu or cold or serious throat infection at least once a winter. Not any more.

Good evening.
I note you are taking 10,000 of D3. I have watched Dr. E. Nepute (he is on YouTube), and he recommends higher dosages—10,000 or even more depending...
I have received some concern from family members about the 10,000 I am taking... Do you recall where you found info that prompted you to take 10,000 vs. the usual 3,000-5,000? And I am to understand you have had no problems? If so, that is good to know.
Also, do you take K2 with the D3? Some say I should be doing that.
Yes, K2 and probably also magnesium (preferably chelated). But look it up or even better, consult with a wellness MD. They can tell you exactly what you need.
It is my understanding that you should have your blood level of vitamin D checked annually, in order to establish how much D you should take orally. It is a simple and inexpensive test. [Why is it not a standard test, when Vitamin D is so critically important to our health? Maybe because modern medicine is not interested in making you truly healthier, because healthy people are not profitable.]
All the best to you and yours.
