High Calcium score
Hello, I was diagnosed with unstable angina last April, and had CT Angiogram and Calcium score scan. Results came back that I had severe blockages in 3 arteries and a Calcium score of 525 which put me in the highest percentile for a 69 year old woman. I had my angiogram and angioplasty in Sepember.

Bone health
I think I’ve asked this but I’m not sure I understood. Please be patient with me. If calcium and therefore also calcium rich foods - dairy obvs but also green leafy veg, soya etc, suppress levothyroxine, what do we do for bone healthy foods?

Switch from Bisaprolol to Calcium Blockers
Hi all, new to the site. My cardiologist has just switched me off Bisaprolol 5 mg as they had stopped working properly to Tildiem and Ranolazine. He said it was OK to stop the Bisoprolol cold turkey as I had only been on it a few months, but I was wondering if anyone else had experienced their heart

Rejoining the world - An update on my cancer experience as a patient with cirrhosis
People have been asking how I was doing so I thought it was time to provide an update. A quick review. I was having very painful time with back muscle cramps and had a fall which resulted in 3 compression fractures. While dealing with that I saw my PCP who identified that I was having a critical calcium

things blocking calcium
I was talking to a nurse at the royal osteoporosis society and I asked about phytates and oxalates blocking calcium absorption, and she said that they don't block all the calcium, anyone say different.

Psoriasis, Vitamin D and Shea Butter
Hello! I wanted to share my recent success with plaque psoriasis. (Backstory alert - skip to last couple of paragraphs for "point"🙃) - I've had psoriasis for several years now. Started with guttate psoriasis about 7 years ago (though at the time, I thought it was just a rash/an allergic reaction).

Calcium Citrate questions
I’ve been taking Calcium Carbonate on and off for over 5 years but my stomach really doesn’t like it. It makes me gassy and and causes me to have stomach ache. I have read that Calcium Citrate is more gentle on the stomach so I am trying to find what the equivalent calcium citrate is to calcium carbonate

absorbing calcium and nutrients
it's hard work trying to absorb calcium and nutrients because there is that many foods that block each other from being absorbed like phytates and oxalates and other things when eaten together, there is even phytates in alpro milk that I take for calcium, I think I need a calcium supplement.

reducing atorvastatin
thanks you for all your replies, really useful hearing other people's experience. I can't get a Drs appt for three weeks, so think I will take the statin every other day until then. Missing sleep is affecting other areas of my overall health. My cholesterol is only 3.5, but I do have serious plaque and
