Does anyone take Vit K2 to help with bones?
I have had a slightly raised calcium level for more than 20 years. Consultant is not perturbed, as it never 'spikes' and is tested regularly. I do not take calcium along with Pred for the above reason. I understand that vit K2 helps to put calcium into bones and not leave it in blood vessels etc. When

are you taking vitamins / supplements, in conjunction with use of a prescription bone treatment?
let me know how it's going, and what you're using, please, thanks ... after all, the main trial for prolia had participants on daily calcium supplement with vitamin D.

valium 2mg for flying with IBS-D
I’ve been prescribed 2mg
Valium
(diazepam) to help me not lose the plot on upcoming flights, as my IBSD related anxiety has got so much worse since covid lockdowns etc. I’ve always had anxiety about having a flare up whilst travelling but it’s a real problem now.

How to take Calcium
I had a prostatectomy in 2014 for Gleason (4+3), salvage radiation in 2017, PSMA PET/CT January 2023 followed by Proton SBRT in April this year for mets on T10 and anal lymph node. I have been told to take daily 1000mg Calcium. Looking for guidance on the best type, other needed supplements to take

Update and Feeling Kicked…..
Thank you to everyone who helped me with my last post on this board regarding DNR. I’m relieved to say that my father was released and is possibly back on track to regain some of the weight lost at hospital. Still waiting to hear if it’s lymphoma. As for me I am feeling kinda kicked down this week.

Newbie, Multiple U3 Parathyroid and Thyroid Nodules, Seizures and other unusual symptoms
Hi, I’m new here but a regular poster on the Pernicious Anemia board as I’ve had PA for a decade now. There’s a history of thyroid issues on my mother’s side and it seems now lymphoma on my father’s side. I’ve been trying to get a diagnosis for seizures that began late 2020 but it’s been difficult

Radium-223 + Xtandi?
I’ve been on chemo (cabazitaxel + carboplatin) since Jan 2022 and also on Zometa and Lupron. PSA went from 1.3 in Jan 2023 to 11.7 this month. CT and Bone scans show bone mets somewhat stable but with activity, all bone no soft tissue. PET PSMA earlier this year did not show enough tracer activity

Anesthetic Flair up
The big difference at the direction of my psychiatrist, general practitioner as well as the surgeon they suggested I take 5 mg of diazapram (
Valium
) the morning of the surgery to calm me before the surgery. Neither the surgeon or either anesthetists even responded to my written requests.

Irregular platelets in PD
I have just enrolled Laurie Mischley's online Parkinson's School, and to say I'm finding it enlightening is an understatement. Importantly, it's prompted me to have my B12 (and various other) blood levels tested again for the first time since 2017. The bloods results show various low and high results

HELP⁉️❓🆘
I could really use some help with shopping & preparing CKD specific meals. However I'm having quite the dilemma right now. One problem is I'm low income, & have 🫰 benefits, so I have limits on what I can spend, which also means no mail delivery pre packaged meals, & I may be wrong, but I've noticed
