My endo tests for vitamin D all the time, her office is in Manhattan and all of the stereotypes of New Yorkers are true. (pale skin, black clothes, sunglasses, outside maybe 10 minutes a day walking from the office to the subway)

More often than not folks have low vitamin D. I'm a beach bum in the summer and have normal levels, but in the winter I've got to take suppliments. Not sure that it's related to the Diabetes so much as environment, but I pop a few calcium + vitamin D tablets every couple of days from October through June.
