1,25D = 43.33 pg/ml
25D = 28.8 ng/ml
Briefly list your diagnosis or symptoms. (around 2 lines at the most).
Chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic GI distress/IBS (stomach and abdominal bloating, poorly formed stool, poor digestion, etc), chronic insomnia, mild depression.
-The date the blood was drawn - 5/9/08
-Which lab did the tests? Unknown lab in Sydney, Australia
-Was the 1,25-D sample was frozen for shipment? No
-How long have you been avoiding foods with vitamin D in them? I hadn't prior to the blood test
-How long have you been avoiding sun/lights? I hadn't prior to the blood test
-List all meds, supplements (both prescription and OTC) you have been taking and why. Daily - Cod liver oil (containing vit A 4000IU and Vit D 400 IU), fis oil 3x1000mg, 150mg vit b, 100mg niacin, 600mg calc/mag, 50mg zinc, silymarin, 4000mg vit c. All this was recommended for an anti-candida diet. I also use ventolin occasionally.
-When and for how long have you taken prednisone or any other immunosuppressant in any form? N/A
-When and for how long did you take Vitamin D supplements (including any vitamin-mineral supplements), omega-3 supplements and/or any kind of fish oil? 8 months
-Were you taking Benicar when the sample was drawn? No
-Were you taking an ARB or or an ACE inhibitor[size=]when the sample was drawn? NoLast edited on Sat Sep 13th, 2008 00:34 by Chanippo

Channipo, If the lab was not frozen then the results are apt to be much lower than they really would have been if lab was run properly. Will give you analysis of probable flawed results anyway.
Your 1,25-D is elevated at 43.33 pg/ml (the population average is 25-29 pg/ml). It is 1.51 sigma high and based on population studies, 93.37% of the population would be expected to have a lower number.
Your 1,25-D is near the maximum of 45pg/ml listed in the Merck Manual of Diagnosis and Therapy (15 Oct 2006 online). At levels above about 42 pg/ml, the 1,25-D (generated by the Th1 inflammation) begins to stimulate bone osteoclasts, causing bone to be resorbed (dissolved) back into the bloodstream. Not only does this lead to osteoporosis, but also to calcium being deposited into soft tissue of the body, including the lungs, breasts, and the kidneys (where it forms kidney stones). Please see Osteoporosis, osteopenia and Th1 illness.
Your 25-D of 28.8ng/ml is high enough to blunt innate immune response. Because 25-D is immunosuppressive, you need to avoid ALL sources of Vitamin D to get it down to a therapeutic level of 12ng/ml or less. Please see Foods To Avoid and The importance of avoiding vitamin D.
"The 25-D seems to be the most critical factor as to whether the immune system is able to start working. Any level of 25-D above about 20ng/ml is likely to be acting as an immunosuppressant, with an action very similar to that of corticosteroids." Dr. Trevor Marshall, Ph.D.
Your D-tests, diagnosis and symptoms indicate Th1 inflammation. Please see Symptoms of Hypervitaminosis-D and you may recognize a few more. You will not get well and your health will continue to deteriorate if you don't treat the underlying bacterial cause of Th1 inflammation with the MP. Please see Is the MP an applicable treatment for my disease?
Most supplements and many medications must be avoided on the MP.
Our clinical study is temporarily closed to enrollment. As vacancies occur, we will admit subjects based on an application. To obtain an application form, please send an email to marshallprotocol2@yahoo.com with 'request MP application' in the subject line.
Best, P.B.
