They were low previously, but now they are normal. I was afraid of getting into the toxic level, but I have nothing to fear. My vitamin D is 119 and normal range is 76-250.

When the amount is lower than normal it is most likely a iron deficiency especially in woman, if the amount is higher than normal it is a so called hyperchrome anemia.
