Should you take vitamin d3 supplements if you have hyperparathyroidism?

Typically with hyperparathyroidism your calcium levels are elevated so your body does not convert vitamin D to the active form of D3. This is a protective measure because more D means more calcium added to an already elevated level. But your body needs adequate D for proper muscle function and metabolism. Hence some of the symptoms of HPT is due to low D, not elevated calcium. Elevated calcium does have symptoms but low D causes the muscle weakness. So what do you do? I think the jury is still out on how to help with some of the symptoms of HPT so surgery is still your only option to get things back to normal. In my opinion, taking D puts you at risk of elevating your calcium to a really dangerous level.

Is taking a multivitamin b complex and a vitamin C supplement unhealthy if the multivitamin also contains vitamin c?
== == No; one can safely take both supplements. However, vitamin C can cause a copper deficiency with prolonged high doses (more than 20 times the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for months, for example). Unless you are taking extremely high-dose supplements, you are not likely to have this problem. Additionally, vitamin C intake levels above the RDA have not shown any additional benefit in controlled experiments. Unless there is some indication that your intake of vitamin C is deficient, it is likely that you will not benefit from the additional vitamin C supplement.
