I don't think there's an easy answer as we all have differently tuned bodies with different known/unknown beningn/malevolent conditions. It's probably good to do some short term experimenting, try eating more magnesium and calcium rich foods and see how you feel. If you really want to be objective, get your blood contents measured. (Although blood levels don't show everything, like calcium stores in the bones.)

Yeah, experimentation makes sense.

I've had it happen twice, with two different dosages. First time was at a higher dosage than 1000 and I think it happened sooner.

I'm just calling it out here, because sometimes you get lucky and someone else had the same issue and has the answer and will resolve the mystery.

I'm not saying Vit D is bad, I'm just curious if others have had difficulties with it.

My doctors opinion on it is everyone is low on Vit D, so just take some.

Never had/heard of your problem with Vitamin D.

A web search brings up - https://www.reddit.com/r/Biohackers/comments/1ia6yyb/update_...

tl;dr - some Vit D supplements are based on lanolin. if you're sensitive to it, you may switch to a supplement that doesn't use lanolin. also one response talks about taking a multi-Vitamin B supplement for anger issues with Vit.D
