New to CAD
I’m 48 years old and just recently had a calcium score done. It’s came back as 312. My cardiologist put me on a statin and told me to take a low dose aspirin 81 mg every day. I was also advised to change my diet and get more cardio exercise. I have changed my diet completely and started riding an exercise

Yet another mess...
I am coming to the end of my B12 pills and being on the lower pension and every penny counts, wondered if I needed to reorder. So I phoned the surgery to request a blood test, and was told the GP would phone me back. So far, so good. A GP phoned, introduced herself as the new GP at the surgery. I

Is my 7 year old son hypothyroid?
My son is 7 years old and he doesn't seem to be growing enough, at least in the last year or so. I am suspecting he could be Hypothyroid because of my genes (Hashimoto's and Type 1 diabetes), so we did some blood work: hGH - 0,27 ng/mL (0,05 - 11,00) IGF-I - 74,93 ng/mL (18,00 - 307,00) TSH - 3,574

Calcium and D3 supplementation decreases cancer risk and increases CVD risk
Full access to this article is behind a pay wall. Nevertheless the reduced article might be interesting for those who take those supplements. Unfortunately it is not quite clear (to me) whether it is the combination or the calcium by itself that has these consequences and what role the D3 plays in either

On Nutrition & Exercise
Excellent Zoe Pod Cast/YouTube with Prof Cyrus Cooper & Prof Tim Spectre on explanation of osteoporosis and latest thinking on nutrition, exercise and treatments. It’s a long one but worth the listen and thoughts on latest research studies - may surprise many - especially on VitD/Calcium supplementation

Coronary calcium channel score
Is statin prescribing linked to Coronary Calcium score? In late 60's my recent Angiogram was fine but had a CCS score of 25. From what I've read, Statins do not eliminate existing plaque, but stop it getting worse. Always ate healthy, since a child being faddy, cut off every bit fat from meat, wouldn'teat

Does anybody get severe cramps; legs,pectoral and feet?
I have been on Ibrance for nearly 6 years. I feel I am doing well overall but I get very painful muscle cramps. I have experimented with Magnesium Oxide, Glycinate/Hylands Leg Cramps/Curcumin/Tonic water/Calcium and Potasium. The only thing that helps is drinking magnesium citrate power in water during

T3 only and heart rate
Hi all, I was started on liothyronine only 6 months ago and it has been life changing. It has resolved 4 years of debilitating symptoms, including chronic fatigue. I have faulty D102 and am a poor converter. I was finally taken off levothyroxine following abnormal ECG and tachycardia. I had a scan and

calcium supplement before reclast infusion
is it best to take a calcium supplement before my infusion, I have had a blood test prior to my infusion but a blood test doesn't really show how much calcium in your bones and I have been reading that reclast lowers calcium levels.

Is drinking milk bad for osteoporosis?
I've just heard Heather Mills on TV make this statement! I am shocked to say the least. I always have a large bowl of cereal in the evening and go to bed on hot milk as I believed this was one way of getting calcium in me????
