    I was told by my doctor that my levels of vitamin D were very low, so she advised me to take them, but since then, I continue to have palpitations whenever I try to sleep at night. What should I do?

    • Thinking Monkey Thinking Monkey United States says:

      Same here. I take Vitamin D3 supplements due to being diagnosed with low Vitamin D but when I take them, I have heart palpitations, especially at or near bed time. It is definitely the Vitamin D supplements because if I stop taking them for a couple of days, no more palpitations. Then if I take the supplements I have the palpitations that same night. However, a cardiologist has told me that the palpitations are harmless and I can ignore them. That's a little hard to do when you're lying in bed at night and your heart is skipping and thudding.
