Does anyone take Vit K2 to help with bones?
I have had a slightly raised
calcium
level for more than 20 years. Consultant is not perturbed, as it never 'spikes' and is tested regularly. I do not take
calcium
along with Pred for the above reason. I understand that vit K2 helps to put
calcium
into bones and not leave it in blood vessels etc.

To be honest it sounds like the consultant thinks I have already had my
calcium
ct scan results, which I haven’t! He said some calcifications doesn’t always mean heart disease - I didn’t know I had calcifications as I haven’t had the results.

Supplement schedule query - which should be taken apart from others?
I've always had low ferritin and months ago started Simply Heme iron supplements, which are supposed to be easier to absorb, and blocked only by
calcium
. I'm now wondering if anyone can advise on my current supplement schedule, in case any of them are blocking absorption of any others?!

My

prescribed tablets have multiple artificial sugars which I want to avoid. Can anyone recommend a make that doesn’t have them? Preferably
calcium
citrate as on Omeprazole. Thank you.

Night sweats etc.
Doctor blames pred of course for my condition but he has only recently put me on Vit D,/
calcium
and alendronic acid tablets. Thinking he should have put me on these tablets from the start. So glad for this forum for others with this condition.

K2 supplement
Having read on this forum that
calcium
/D3 is best supplemented with K2 to aid absorption, I've been taking it with my (prescribed) iCal D3 chewable tablets for some years.

From RA to Lupus. High dose pred questions.
Should he be taking
calcium
and vit D supplements? And if so, which would people recommend? Also he has high blood pressure which is currently sort of controlled by amplopidine (5mg) - does anyone have experience of this?

Help interpreting results
My parathyroid remained high as I was tested every 4 months, but didn’t drastically change and my
calcium
was the high range of normal, so under the advice of endocrinology, my GP stopped regularly testing for this.

radiation whack-a-mole?
In 2021 I had cyberknife radiation to new lesions in spinal vertebrae L3 and T9, which knocked the cancer back but also weakened the bone and led to compression fractures, to harden the bone I'm now also getting an Xgeva (bisphospehante) injection every 90 days, along with a ton of
calcium
every day.

Graves Disease, Hyperthyroidism and Supplements
Supplements taken: vitamin D apple cider tablets turmeric
calcium
magnesium When I was diagnosed with Graves Disease and Hyperthyroidism I stop taking all supplements. The TSH reduced 50%. Is possible that the supplements were the cause of the disease? Thank you, Vanbr

That we actually do not need dairy as adults and should be getting
calcium
from fruits and veggies along with natural
calcium
supplements. I have recently switched to organic egg shell
calcium
, as it absorbs 67% more than other
calcium
. Has anyone been using this and see improvements?
