Calcium supplements
About a week ago Mrs Nails put up a wonderfully clear and informative post ,about Alendronic Acid. (Mrs Nails, your work is so much appreciated.) I was very interested to note she says supplements of calcium and Vit D are to be taken AS WELL AS bisphosphonate, if you have osteoporosis, which I do ( lowest

Has any experienced a red neck?
I have occasionally been getting red neck where my thyroid is located. I usually get it at night and it is sensitive to touch. I wonder if this is related to my hypothyroidism. My thyroid levels are within range but my parathyroid and calcium have been high but since no nodule was presented on my ultrasound

New to Alendronic Acid!
Hi - I'm new here and looking forward to learning more. Took my first ever Alendronic Acid tablet yesterday (weekly 70mgs) . Diagnosed osteoporosis (mild) about 3 years ago but elected no treatment. Then broke a wrist at Christmas so treatment advised as necessary. Had very strong reaction to first pill

Benzo differences
So far I've been prescribed Xanax, klonopin and Ativan. While they are all effective, there a subtle and not so subtle differences between them. For me, Xanax addresses my social anxiety way more than the others, and seems to hit my brain/cognition more. Klonopin tends to be smooth and has the axiomatic

Prednisone and teeth.
Since I was diagnosed with PMR over 30 months ago, I, like everyone else, was given prednisone... During the past four months I have found a deterioration in my well kept and cared for teeth. Two of my front teeth have broken 🥲, and three teeth have started to wiggle. This is quite a shock to

Trying so hard to feel normal - overhauling the supplement plan
Hi 🙂, Just meanderings of a tired brain today. Hoping I'm not the only one on this wave-length. Some days with endo are really tough, and some are deceptively "easy" like today, where I end up asking myself why I "can't feel normal". Stage IV endo is where I'm at, waiting for Tuesday for the recommendation

Remedies for Parkinson's constipation
This subject comes up a lot, so I figured it would be useful to post our collective wisdom in one place as a reference. As usual – what works for one may not work for another. So members of our club are invited to also post your remedies in the comments.

Advice about Alendronic Acid
I am 54 and had an early menopause, so after a rib fragility fracture was sent for a Dexa scan. My result is osteoporosis in the spine (t score - 2.6), osteopenia femoral neck (t score - 1.8) and left hip (t score - 1.0). My risk of major fracture within 10 years is 9.6%. I have been prescribed Alendronic

Help with ranges
Hi guys, I have posted a few times and am by no means a novice when it comes to all things thyroid and bloods and vits etc but my question is does anyone have any official guidlines regarding reaching a euthroid state on replacement. In other words is there medical guidance that states top 3rd of range
