And while by blood testing they fall into an adequate range, if I personally get below a certain level, the bones in my legs hurt. I can take a combination of vitamin D and magnesium and the pain goes away within hours. I also get vasculitis when my D is low, same thing, blood testing shows it on the low end of the normal scale but for my physical body it is too low and I show and feel physical symptoms. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 3942296 United States 02/12/2018 08:33 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If doctors tested EVERYONE with chronic pain for Vitamin D deficiency, magnesium deficiency and Vitamin B12 Deficiency, we would save a HUGE amount of suffering in the world. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1102361 There are Receptors for Vitamin D all throughout the muscles of the body, and when Vitamin D deficiency is present, not only can the muscles become painful, but they also become WEAK, causing falls in the elderly and fatigue in many people. Deficiency of Vitamin D and Pain is a very serious, very common and very widespread cause of pain. And it is still almost completely unrecognized. Nearly every study that looked at the relationship between the two found that up to 100% of people with chronic pain have Vitamin D Deficiency AND that TREATING Vitamin D deficiency led to a decrease in pain - when the studies actually used enough vitamin D to correct the deficiency. Individual studies have shown pain to be relieved by treating vitamin D deficiency in as diverse pain syndromes as: Chronic Back Pain (VERY common to have vitamin D deficiency) 'Nerve Pain'- also called Peripheral Neuropathy Symptoms of Fibromyalgia Musculoskeletal Pain Pre Menstrual Syndrome Even ‘Inflammatory’ Pain such as Irritable Bowel Disease and Crohn’s Disease Read more: [link to www.easy-immune-health.com] I supplement all of that and I still have chronic pain. they do not prevent the pain. |

Only Me Strawberry Girl User ID: 14233520 United States 02/12/2018 09:05 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What always amazes me is the number of people who will take ANY pill a doctor prescribes, but never even try a vitamin pill. Quoting: weegie no doubt. and their reasoning for doing so never makes sense What amazes me is that their first answer is opioids, which they get their patients hooked on and then take it from them in fear of legal trouble and then treat the patients like hypochondriacs. Ooooh I'm bitter about pain. Fortunately I haven't had trouble with opioids but I know some who do and it's sad. Goodbye, halcyon days... There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory mentioned, which states that this has already happened. |

Wonderful Several recent studies show that turmeric/curcumin has anti-inflammatory properties and modifies immune system responses. A 2006 study showed turmeric was more effective at preventing joint inflammation than reducing joint inflammation. |

I am a huge believer in Vitamin D. If you supplement with turmeric, it requires oil to digest so best eaten as an ingredient in (or along with) food. |
