Thyroidectomy and calcium

There are sometimes posts or replies on the merits or demerit of calcium supplements. However, treatment for all thyroid conditions is not the same. People who have had thyroidectomy often need calcium as well as vit D3.There are sometimes posts or replies on the merits or demerit of calcium supplements.

Calcium channel blockers

Having recently been diagnosed with angina and prescribed calcium channel blockers, I have been reading up about them. I am quite alarmed to read that they can be dangerous, eg cause heart attack, stroke, cancer! Does anyone have any more information on this drug?Having recently been diagnosed with angina and prescribed calcium channel blockers, I have been reading up about them.

Anyone find calcium tablets difficult to stomach?

Has anyone found that taking calcium tablets doesn’t agree with them? I started taking Accrete D3 on Monday, each film coated tablet contains cholecalciferol 400IU and calcium 600mg ( as calcium carbonate 1500mg) and I take 2 a day. The excipients are hydrogenated soya-bean oil and sucrose.Has anyone found that taking calcium tablets doesn’t agree with them?
