Do you have access to a holistic practitioner or orthomolecular practitioner? I used to work for one, and we had vitamin D that was veggie sourced.
the other thing you may want to inquire about is a Vitamin D injection. I know its kind of hard to find docs that will do this but it may be a good idea in your case.
Hope things get better for you-my sister is going through this and she is just miserable/exhausted.

Wow, I just received feedback from my doc after a blood test, and she is insisting I take a prescription of Vitamin D, once a week for the next two months! I had no idea it went that far. I'm picking it up tomorrow and will let you all know more.

5,000 units of Vitamin D once a week for 2 months. Found out my level is 8.7- I know I don't get a lot of sun here, but how did I ever get so low?
