Calcium - forms, doses, timings
The tablets are
calcium
carbonate
. I looked up
calcium
citrate and it says there is only 21% absorption compared to 40% absorption of
calcium
carbonate
if latter is taken with a meal which I do. So I don't know if that will make a difference?

Alpro Almond Milk..... why do they do this? Any chemists have words of advice?
Yes indeed there are other changes - The
calcium
is now
calcium
carbonate
. I did a google search and found that
calcium
carbonate
is used to treat "conditions caused by too much stomach acid" so not too friendly for us Hashimoto folks.

Calcium and cytomel
I found out that if I take
calcium
carbonate
with digestive enzymes my body improves and I can walk again but it works for 3-4 hours and then I need to repeat it again. I switched now to calcium citrate because my kidneys were affected.

Gabapentin and Oxycodone
I take a number of medications for prostate cancer, Prostap injections, Amlopidine, Alendronic Acid and
Calcium
Carbonate
/ Vitamin D. I avoid taking the Gabapentin at the same time as the Calcium. I also suffer from Night Eating Syndrome, which kicks in even if my RLS is quiet.

Supplements
I found out that
Calcium
carbonate
is the cheapest form, is a rock and not very absorbable, plus the formula has aspartame and sucrose. Sucrose moves to the gut straight away where the good bacteria feeds from it and dies! Aspartame produces inflammation. I took one chewable tablet and that's it!

Calcium citrate
I can’t take
calcium
carbonate
so take this instead but I’m having trouble finding it in a tablet/capsule size I can easily swallow. Citracal Petites are recommended but I can’t find anywhere that sells them in the UK that doesn’t have dreadful reviews on Trustpilot. Any recommendations?

Medication absorption / metabolisation
Does anybody have information on factors affection the absorption / effect of stimulant medication? I already know about the effect of vit C and other acidic foods etc and that alkaline things like bicoarbonate of soda can potentially prolong the effect of medication. I've also read that low zinc levels

Update on my daughter's GP call today. So angry.
I'm so angry but not surprised. I didn't expect much tbh. My daughters last Vitamin results from 2022 were B12 290, Ferritin 24, folate 9.2 & Vit D 39. She been on thyroxine since a teenager now in her 40's. TSH levels fluctuating all over the place for past 6 years. Well the GP called today
