If you’re deficient, ask your doc for 50,000 IU per week for twelve weeks, then take between 2,000-5,000 each day. That worked for me.

Being low on D isn't going to make you sick, weak, dizzy, nauseated, or have muscle cramps and pain. Something else is going on and should be investigated...probably with your primary care doctor. Best wishes.

Truly sounds as if you may be dehydrated. Also, if you happen to take any blood pressure medications, if you are also dehydrated your blood pressure may be too low. This will definitely cause weakness, dizziness and nausea. In addition, decreased potassium and/or magnesium levels can cause muscle cramps and even heartbeat irregularities leading to all the symptoms you described. Definitely have it checked out…if you can’t see your surgeon or primary care and it’s severe, then go to an Urgent Care Center or ED and have it checked out.

Agreed. This should absolutely be consulted with PCP or physician related to surgery. Depending on how far you are out. These are also signs of dumping, have you eaten anything that could be triggering that? People on here give great advice, but medical advice related to your overall health should always be followed up with a licensed professional. Best of luck.
