WOW that is great news! You can find out what dose is good for you by getting your blood tested….there are 2 things to look at…a blood level of D3 over 125 preferably around 150 ng/ml+ is good for promoting tissue remodeling like what is going on in your lungs..Even 170 to 200 is ok. This is safe as long as you keep an eye on your blood calcium and make sure it stays in the normal range… It is only the calcium that can be harmful from high dose d3 d3 itself is nontoxic… (But it is not that harmful and elevated calcium is rare) but that is why you take VItamin K2 with high dose d3 it facilitates putting the calcium back in your bones. You should also supplement with magnesium as high dose d3 uses up your magnesium at a high rate and can trigger magnesium deficiency symptoms in some people (this is more common) and most of us 80% start off magnesium deficient…..take magnesium 2x per day preferably extended-release you can get that from www.lef.org… Once you feel you are cured from the COPD you might want to drop the dose down to maybe 20,000 a day to shoot for a D3 blood level of about 90 to 100 ng/ml I keep my blood level around 120 ng/ml for good health
