Vitamin D can Prevent Cancer

Diagnosed February 2008 with Ulcerative Proctitis,

Currently: symptoms have subsided for the most part

Medications:  Asacol 400mg X 6, Cymbalta 20 mg X 1, Canasa (sometimes) Vitamins:  Calcium 600 + D X 2, One a Day Women's X 1, Citrucel, Probiotics

High fiber diet

"I thank God that  I found this website!"

Can one take too much D though?  Like what would be a preferred daily amount for UC sufferers?

We know UC affects the joints and prednisone wrecks bone density, and D helps us to absorb our missing calcium.   I take two combo tabs a day for a total of 1300mg calcium and 400 IU 'D' (plus the occasional glass of milk and a bit of cheese but not every day)

Would that be considered enough?

^{currently flaring again..  grrr! (triggered by stress - grrr)}

^{mesalazine granules 3g x1 a day (much nicer than a million tablets a day)}

^{enteric coated fish oil -omega 3 (so they get all the way to my colon)}

^{vitamin D3 x1 a day}

^{prednisolone 25mg x1 a day (ick ick and did i say ick?)}

^{tumeric capsules x3 a day}
