What do my Vitamin D test results mean?

I've been diagnosed with extremely deficient Vitamin D levels over the past and was given a prescription of 50,000 mg/once weekly supplements to take. I've been out of them for about 6 months and just switched doctors and received the following test results:
25-H D2 23.0 ng/mL
25-H D3 9.1 ng/mL
25-Hydroxy D Total 32.0 ng/mL
I had a pretty thorough blood workup and have other test results if there's something I'm missing. I live in Phoenix area, am 51, menopausal, and overweight (but not obese) with many joint issues and constant pain from these issues. I'm getting mixed signals about whether I have the optimal Vitamin D levels and would love another opinion.
Thanks!
