Re: FYI Vitamin D Blood Spot Test to the Public £20

[Guest guest]

We got ours done just last week ,the process was really quick special if you give email address....the best hour to contact them is in the morning we did had much luck when phone them in the afternoon ....

after a tantrum and fobias out of the way and both me and he's dad holding him he did prick his finger and done the test, it come back with deficiency D2 is really low I think 2.8 .....D3 is 19.7 do you think this indicates also deficiency ? Does it show a need for D3 supplementation or increase the D2 would be enough?

I have no idea how to go about this ....any advice would be appreciated .....

Mandi and

the test gives you an overall result which in DS was 22.5 (sum of D3 and D2) and marked as deficient above that only severe deficiency which is below 15 as an overall result .....

but also breaks down the result in his case D3 19.7 and D2 2.8 ...

I can see that D2 is really low but was not sure about D3 as they consider the between 40 and 50 as an overall result and do not break down a reference result for D3 or D2 in particular .....

so having saying that you definitely would consider D3 supplementing ?

I concur and would supplement

I don't know why they add D2 and D3. D2 is metabolized in the kidneys to D3. 22.5 is still FAR too low.
