Dr. Sharon Olson wrote in my medical file with HelloMD:
“Since she is over 50 she cannot make vitamin D in her skin anymore, so she must supplement vitamin D3 and she must have her vitamin D blood level checked mid‐summer and midwinter and adjust her vitamin D3 intake accordingly.”
After Dr. Olson mentioned vitamin D, I asked Dr. Chan if I could have a blood test for vitamin D and, surprisingly, she ordered it.

Dear JackiePlease come in for non-fasting laboratory tests.
I have put in lab order(s) through the computer system. Please go to the lab directly.
You may go to ANY KAISER FACILITY (including Alameda, San Leandro or Oakland) to have laboratory test done.
ALAMEDA KAISER: 2417 CENTRAL AVENUE, ALAMEDA

So here I sit, on the day of the vampires, waiting for them to suck out my blood.
LAB TEST RESULTS:
It was a good thing I had the test for vitamin D. Normal range is given as 20-79 ng/mL, and mine is 40 ng/mL—on the low side. So I have decided to take 10,000IU/day.
