CT Scan
Hi. I recently had a ct scan but I’ve now received a letter saying that because there was a lot of calcium they could not get clear images. I now need a myocardial perfusion scan. I don’t understand. Is this a sign I may have serious problems.

Vitamin K2 Mk7
Good morning. I have just ordered this as I have learned from this site that I should be taking this with AdCal to help the absorption of the calcium into my bones. The vitamin k is once a day so should i take it with the mid morning AdCal or evening one ? Thanks very much. Currently tapering 4.0/3.5

Low resting HR on Bisoprolol
A quick question please? I’m on a low dose of Bisoprolol at 1.25mg daily, my resting heart rate is now sub 50 BPM and regularly at 42 to 45BPM. When in Afib it sits around the 90 to 100BPM mark which although uncomfortable is just about tolerable until I revert back to NSR which these days is anywhere

Blood calcium level testing?
Having just read various posts about knee troubles, some mention blood calcium levels found to be too high, causing pseudogout. I have had knee troubles for a couple of years now, both stiff and painful and one swells up and has been drained several times and I’ve been put on Sulfasalazine to try and

Swollen Knees Synovitis Update
In June I asked for advice regarding if stiff and swollen knees were a part of my PMR. I received some good advice which has helped, i.e check calcium intake which I did, with a blood test and was told by GP to stop taking calcium supplement as my levels were too high. Soon after stopping, the stiffness

Rheumy does not believe vitamin K is useful
Just got back from my first rheumy appointment. I grilled him about all sorts if things including should I take Vitamin K with my calcium. He said there is no evidence to suggest that it has any use as there have been no "blind clinical trials". I told him I had read it on this forum and he said "people

Strong Finger Nails
Since January 2019 I have been eating a plain organic yogurt every day to combat calcium deterioration. Have recently noticed that my nails are stronger than they have ever been. Just hope my bones are too. Wondering if anyone else has noticed the same improvement??

Supplements whilst on Preds
I have looked in the FAQ’s but is there a simple post with the information regarding supplements to take whilst on Preds? If not can someone with more knowledge than me create one please? I’m looking for something that, in one place, lists the suggested supplements e.g. Calcium, Vitamin D etc, the best

I was diagnosed with afib only one time during a routine checkup. It was never found again. I even bought an afib detector that I test myself 3x a day. I have never had any symptoms. With that said, I realize afib is a progressive type of issue. In view that I have great cholesterol numbers and nothing

Why do you need cholesterol?
This was copied from an email I got so don’t go shooting the messenger if you don’t agree :). “I have been trying for years, decades actually, to raise my cholesterol. Finally after a more significant (call it strict if you like) change in diet, it’s happening and that’s a good thing. You see, low cholesterol

Total thyroidectomy
Hi After suffering from breathlessness for a few months, I underwent various tests in April 2021 to try and find the cause. During a lung CT to see if I had any blood clots, I was advised that my thyroid was very large, not in the right location, and multi-nodular and could be the cause of the breathing

Hi all. Well 4 1/2 years after my bypass surgery I found myself with similar angina pains although things went slightly differently this time. At first I think I was in denial about the pain 'was it imagined' 'was it indigestion'? In the end I could ignore it no longer so last Monday (18th) I phoned
