How Can Vitamin D Deficiency Along With Elevated Cholesterol Levels Be Treated?
Got a call from my provider today, that I have low vitamin D, high thyroid, and high cholesterol! This has been reoccurring over the last 2 years! Also in the past was said to have lowered kidney function. Some tests have been ran, but I have never been given any conclusive answer or diagnosis. I ll add that I have night sweats from the waist down and sleep very little. Just needing more answers as to what is going on in my body and thought I would start here since its been 2 years and nothing has changed. thank-you
