I have been taking this since January. My T score is -2.9 and the chance of a major spinal fracture over the next 10 years is14 per cent. I am -2.4 in the hip. I have never had a fracture. I try to exercise as much as possible - these days it's mainly walking. My calcium levels are fine and I have been

Is ADCAL dangerous?
My GP put me on ADCAL when he diagnosed PMR and started Prednisolone. At my first telephone consultatioon with a rheumy (I sacked him yesterday!) he said to come off it as it is dangerous. I am not on any calcium medication. Anyone confirm this or make any comment? Thanks.

Criteria for choosing non-emergency CABG?
My dad is scheduled for an angioplasty next week. His flow test and scans have revealed at least three significant blockages (over 70%) one of which is in his LAD. The doctors are planning to insert stents, but said the cath will give them a better sense of the blockages and if CABG is the better option

THE PROOF IS IN VITAMIN D BEATS COVID - WHY THEN IS IT ALL ABOUT A VACCINE
Apologies for the length of this post but the information I share below comes from Chris Kesser. He says "The first randomized controlled trial on vitamin D and COVID-19 has been published. The results are extraordinary. In short, taking vitamin D virtually eliminated the risk of ICU admission—and

I suffer from night time palpitations which I have had for over 4 years now. I have has every test under the sun including heart scans, ecg's, angiogram and calcium scoring and much more. The general opinion from my consultant is that I have benign PVC'S but 3 different halter monitors have proved inconclusive

Low calcium level does this answer for odd symptoms
Calcium deficiency -my bloods showed level of 2.19 (I believe the normal range is 2.2 - 2.6) so only very slightly low. I am 35 and 7 weeks pregnant with my third. I have been experiencing pins and needles and numbness amongst other strange symptoms for over 3 weeks now and am concerned as to what

Will my dad be okay?

He went in to see his cardiologist last week, and came back with a calcium score of 2200 and an appointment for an angioplasty + at least

Some notes on Mannitol
There has been much discussion about Teva levothyroxine in the UK and Levothyrox (formerly Euthyrox) in France and other countries - where it appears that the mannitol ingredient could be the cause of issues. I found a few papers about mannitol and thought that they could be of some interest. There

Disappointing hospital visit
I’m absolutely gutted. I asked to see the specialist endo that was on the list of endos provided by thyroid UK and I didn’t get to see him. I’m hypo following RAI in 2011 and my health has got much worse within last couple of years or so. Last test results in the photo. (B12 range 200-900) So apparently

Now taking Alendronic Acid because of need to take Steroids. - Advice please?
I was diagnosed with Osteoporosis back in 2007. I always managed my condition without Bisphosphonates, firstly when I was able to take HRT and some supplements, then, when HRT was no longer an option, with diet, exercise and supplements.

Late Update with my blood results - need help
I've been meaning to get back since last posts with my blood results but life catches up. I had a few probs that came up earlier this year which gave me a bit of a jolt. I had eye problems and of course it was over the weekend so I had to go to the Emergency at the Eye Hospital. After extensive tests

DEXA Dilemma - Round 2!
Warning! Long post, so grab a cup of tea/coffee first. This will either make you laugh or cry. You may need a Hobnob half way through to sustain you, even if you’re on a low carb diet! 😀 Morning all! Nope, it’s already afternoon. Doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun!🤪 Let’s just say I’m not in
