I would keep that up and if you could get a blood test for a vitamin D level, that would tell you where you are.
Oh wow. That was no fun.
Mine was doing power pulls - skating forward on one foot pulling back and forth to go forward (I think you do that kind of thing in hockey). Anyway, one nanosecond lapse, and my feet went out from under me, whacked the back of my head, glasses flew off, broke the wrist. The goose egg just about covered the whole back of my head. The dizziness took about 6 months to go away. That bothered me more than wearing a cast.
I’m an EMT - you know it’s bad when I told them to call 911. I think that freaked out my coach more than anything else. I really thought seriously about not skating again. But I do love it so I’m living on the edge (so to speak).
Thanks for your service. I'm glad to read that your getting better. Actually, vitamin D is very similar in structure to the various sex hormones.

I was wondering about that sex hormone thing!!! :-)
Interesting...thanks for the information.
You bet. I had sought neuro/psychiatric help from the local VA hospital and was placed on a number of meds, none of which helped, then they hit on vitamin D. Thank God.
