This depends on how low you are. It could take months to get built up. Stick with it and you should definately see an improvement...

Wow, I thought I was the only one that feels this way. My dr. perscribed vitamin D 50,0000 for me, works really well. I take it once a week for now about three months now. I can't take direct sunlight, it has me feeling like i'm going to burst into flames or a little sick, ... so here's to fellin like a vampire.

You can also get vitamin D2 or D3 over the counter. Feeling better is well worth it. My experience was that before taking it, my fatigue and pain got worse. Low vitamin d is also linked to anxiety and depression.
