Question

I'm dealing with waist pain and it's been going on for a couple of months now. I got my vitamin D3 levels checked and it's at 12.5. My doctor wants me to take arachitol injections. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it safe?

Question

I'm trying to figure out whether it's better to take the Vitamin D Uprise sachet with milk or just stick with the Uprise capsule. I recently noticed my Vitamin D and B12 levels dropped from 60 to 27 over the past four months. I spend a lot of time working under AC as I'm in IT. How can I keep my Vitamin D and B12 levels healthy? Are there any natural or mild supplements you'd recommend for maintaining these vitamins? Also, what would be a good yearly dosage to consider?

Question

I'm wondering if taking HCG 5000 IU, like my doctor suggested, is actually going to help me get pregnant. Is there a specific time when we should have intercourse for the best chance of it working?
