Why does my rheumatologist want me to go onto Methotrexate when I am on a low does of Prednisolone and am getting good symptom relief?
I stopped the
AdCal
when I went down to 5mg of Prednisolone a year ago but was told in no uncertain terms to start taking it again.

Night sweats again
Nothing else other than omeprazole and
Adcal
. 3) Sweats seem entirely random: I can go for weeks without any, then bang! Daily sweats for weeks. 4) Sweats are usually massive: pillow and bed so soaked that I have to change and go to another room. 5) Room temp does not play a part.

D mannose
I think I saw a post which said it was okay to take D mannose with prednisone,
adcal
and the other things we take for PMR and GCA but I can’t find it. I have taken 5 courses of antibiotics since February for a persistent UTI and I think it might be worth seeing if this will help to get rid of it.

Help interpreting summary of DEXA scan, please?
For several months I wasn’t even advised what to do about it until I spoke again to my regular doc, who prescribed soluble
ADCAL
D3. But somehow I never got the detailed results from her. At a recent 5-yearly face to face checkup with the nurse, I got her to print out my results.

GP has prescribed Alendronic Acid 70mg
My Dad is now on
Adcal
-D3 1x daily, 9mg Prednisolone daily and 1x weekly Alendronic Acid. Is it normal to be prescribed Alendronic Acid? Also, how far apart should this be taken from Pred? Thanks Lindsay

Confused
I was diagnosed with GCA in May 2023, put on 60gms prednisone and
Adcal
d3. This is now down to 18gms. I'm confused about diet, tea coffee inhibiting absorption of calcium and times between taking meds.

Anastrozole and Adcal-D3 - hypothyroidism and hormone positive breast cancer
I was not advised to take any co factors with the

Adcal
-D3 ? Many thanks for any pointers.

Radium 223 and (AdcalD3) calcium supplements
I'd be grateful for wisdom here as to what works best particularly with regard to the

and Zometa timing? Thanks

Disappointing news
I was prescribed a few years of Alendronic Acid, and
Adcal
which I still takeI took steps to improve by taking up various activities and in 2022 started running regular 5ks. I eat healthily and enjoy lots of veg, in fact I eat most foods recommended for bone health.
