osteoporosis and products to help
hi everyone. Been on alendronic acid for about 4 months but have had a small problem of irritation in my throat, causing coughing. Coughing is painful, having 4 spinal fractures in April. I’ve now been asked to change to zolondronic acid, yearly infusion. This is NOT the same as denusomab.

Brilliant review with pharmacist
Hi Everyone I’m just back from a review of my medication for PMR and high blood pressure with the surgery pharmacist. He was great and to me had a better understanding of this condition than any of the gp’s I’ve spoken to on the phone. He did admit that they don’t always understand the interactions

omega 3 supplement
Good morning everyone. I saw my cardiologist yesterday as I’m having a new knee next week and for my own peace of mind had an echocardiogram which shows my heart is now as it was before AF and high blood pressure were found 3 years ago. She said this showed my blood pressure tablets and healthier lifestyle

Obeticholic acid
Hi everyone I was diagnosed around 5 years ago. Unfortunately I am not fully responding to first line treatment Urso. The Dr's are suggesting that I should start on Obeticholic Acid. I'm a little apprehensive due to the side effects listed. Is there anyone here who could advise please? Tia 😊

Elevated parathyroid hormone?
Is there any research, data, or personal experience with having parathyroid levels, but not blood calcium levels, become elevated while taking alendronate? I had been on alendronate very successfully (no side effects and a stabilized DEXA) for about 6 months when my TSH to monitor my decade long hypothyroidism

Lansoprazole
After previous post, I am taking 2 x 30mg of Lansoprazole and two days in,
Acid

is better. Is this too high a dose? I take it morning and evening before meals. Also I am being referred for endoscopy.

Brief update on my lower Intestinal Tract Capsule Endoscopy.
Just to let you know that the procedure went fine. Although the camera was a little larger than an Omega 3 high strength capsule, I found that with the right mindset I swallowed it easily. The staff were a little disconcerted about my long term steroid use and the possibility of an adrenal crisis and

The Human Serum Metabolome of Vitamin B-12 Deficiency and Repletion, and Associations with Neurological Function in Elderly Adults
Just came across this paper from a few years ago. Thought it interesting as, so often, B12 seems to be though of as a one-trick pony - affecting erythropoiesis and nothing else. The occasional use of methylmalonic acid and homocysteine as additional tests. And that's your lot, folks. In my

denosumab injections
Hi Everyone, I’m hoping to get some advice so I can make an informed decision about treatment with denosumab. I am 61 and I had a small hormone-related breast cancer removed at the start of 2020. Subsequently I went on Letrozole which I couldn’t tolerate. They changed me to Anastrozole which I’m ok

Expiration date
After reading about the (supposed?) shortage of B12 in UK, I, too, am wondering if PanPharma’s shortened expiration date from 2 years to one year has contributed to this perceived shortage. Have we gotten the final answer on why PanPharma shortened their expiry date? Does anyone know if the inactive

Anyone clued up on bone health please?
I recently had a bone scan and was very concerned to learn that there had been severe degenerative changes to both my spine and hips which weren't expected as my scan 3 years ago wasn't bad. They did take me off Alendronic Acid 18 months ago at which time I also went gluten and dairy free (found out

Vasepa (icosapent ethyl)
I have been prescribed Vasepa (icosapent ethyl) for several years now to lower my triglycerides and it has worked very well . I also know that it is a specific omega-3 fatty acid EPA and now I'm wondering what effect it may also have on my recently diagnosed fatty liver (S3) & (F3)?

Diagnosis Issue
Hi All, I have been having issues with my periods since they began but the last 3 years have gotten much worse. Every period I have seems to be worse than the last. After a lot of back and forth with the GP and having tried the pill, mini pill and coil over the last 6 years, I persuaded them to refer

B-12 is Low (398), Folate is High, HCY is 55.6, uMMA is 1.7 , vitamin D and C and Magnesium are Low, all B vitamins are low.
Why is the GP not taking my labs seriously, I've been taking methylcobalamin tablets for a year and just began 5-MTHF because of Folate Deficiency found in my DNA, GP declined to do a MMA Blood serum test, I have been allergic to milk and beef since birth, peanuts followed with life threatening allergies
