I'm worried because my Vitamin D levels are really low, and my doctor prescribed me DRise 60000 IU. I'm not sure if I should take it with milk or water. The doctor didnt mention it. What's the best way to take this supplement?

Can take DRise 60000 IU with water. It is usually recommended to take Vitamin D supplements with water for better absorption. The usual dosage is once a week for 8 weeks, followed by once a month for maintenance.

I found out I have a benign nodule in my right thyroid gland should I consider surgery or is it better to leave it alone? I'm a bit worried about risks and whether it's really necessary

Treating benign nodules If a thyroid nodule isn't cancerous, treatment options include: Watchful waiting. If a biopsy shows that you have a noncancerous thyroid nodule, your doctor may suggest simply watching your condition. This usually means having a physical exam and thyroid function tests at regular intervals.
