Experiences with

Calcichew-D3

But being on calcichew D3 is helping the bones...I hope. Maybe I can go down to 10mg a day of omeprazole which I was on a few months ago before mtx gave me gastritis.

But she said I should get multivitamins but minus vitamin D and Calcium as I'm already on calcichew D3 twice a day. Looked on line but cannot find any without these. Has anyone multi vitamins without calcium and vitamin D3?

I have been taking 1,000 mg of calcium citrate tablets daily, these supplements come in capsules of 100mg of elemental calcium each, therefore I’m taking 10 spaced throughout the day. My GP says why not take Calcichew 500mg twice a day instead? I’m hesitant because they are calcium carbonate. Have

Two questions for my knowledgeable chums. I was diagnosed in November 2023 and after a battle with my GP managed to get a DEXA scan in early April. Results are that this 75 year old has the typical bone density profile of a 30 year old. Yay! Is it reasonable to push for another scan after 6 months

After my DEXA scan, my old GP put me on Alendronic acid and Calcichew D3 Forte. She told me to stop taking the Vit D which was 25 micrograms. The Calcichew has 10 micrograms of D3. So I’ve been on less D3 than I was before.

I was diagnosed with OP about 10 years ago due to an early menopause at 38 and was put on the weekly medication of Alendronic Acid along with calcichew. Everything was ok until 2021 when I had emergency abdominal surgery, I was in ICU for nine days and my family were told I only had a 30% chance of

My husband was recently disanosed with RA and is due to start Methoxtrexate this evening (15mg) and has been given a 5mg Folic Acid Tablet to take the Day after.

I have had what I believe to be hypothyroid issues for 10+ years. during the years I have had multiple blood tests. All reportedly ‘normal’. I have a GP appointment in the morning as I have said I’m not happy with my thyroid levels and am convinced there is something wrong due to all of my previous

Dear fellows, I want to share my positive experience with cancer, and to encourage you to take the similar path. First of all, I thank God for the cancer, this last temptation that he gave me, in order to change myself and become a better person! I was diagnosed 11 years ago prostate cancer with bones

As the sun is now waining and my Neutrophils are still being suppressed by Peggy if thought of Vit D3 supplements. There is a lot of evidence vit D3 helps the immune system and there is also evidence MPN sufferers often have a shortage. Any thoughts in if it's worth while taking a supplement in the

Hi there! Could I please have some advice on my latest blood tests done on 26th September . I have been on 100ug T4 since January and Endo had increased T3 to 20ug on 16th August (previously on 10ug since mid April.) I am still experiencing fatigue and brain fog with bouts of low mood even though

I take 1 capsule of 800 IU Colecalciferol equivalent to 20 micrograms vitamin D3. Is this enough? My bone density continues to go down but I can't tolerate any of the meds given previously. Injections recommended but will be in my body for 6 months and fear side effects.

I'm currently on loads of different supplements to try and help boost my immune system, reduce inflammation and for joint health.
