So are you supplementing Kirk? What does your onc think, if anything, about a relationship between Vit d levels and cancer response?

Yes, my primary care doctor recommended supplementing with 2000 IU per day. They have a 600 count bottle at Costco. It was pretty cheap. I haven't seen my onc since I started. Maybe I'll ask him at my next visit.
