I asked ChatGPT about Fosamax. How does the medication Fosamax fake your DEXA score?
Right now I am just sticking with doing my weight bearing exercises, taking
calcium
citrate and vitamin k2. My next scan is this August. Hoping there is an improvement. But if there is not, I still am hesitant about starting any medications.

Alternatives to milk
I know there are lots of milk alternatives, eg soy milk, oat milk etc - does anyone know which one is the best for people trying to avoid
calcium
? I don’t really want to try soy milk, and as far as I can see, oats have some
calcium
. Does anyone know of a
calcium
free alternative? Thank you.

High urine ph from calcium supplements
Has anyone one had high urine ph from taking plant based
calcium
? My dr wants me to completely stop taking my
calcium
for 2 weeks to see if that is the reason. Im worried about not taking
calcium
for 2 weeks but he said nothing will happen in two weeks to my bones.

Multiple nodules thyroid
I have been advised to completely remove the thyroid, but I wish to try RFA to reduce them volume and prevent the complications streaming from parathyroid glands removal( 4 small glands responsible for the body
calcium
level).

channel blockers or nitro that I tried before . I am very unsure of what to do . I take 500mg as I am very sensitive to meds . My chest tightness,pain and sweating have not gone away . I had 3 nights with feeling unwell ,palpitations ,profuse sweating ,etc .

Well at least that’s one less thing to worry about.
Not being a pill popper before diagnosis I have struggled to take the
calcium
and Vit D supplement and Alendronic Acid which were prescribed as routine by my GP.

cardiac asthma? Any info?
Since then have been on
calcium
channel blockers, Apiaxaban and flecannide. Had an episode of AF a month ago. Used flecannide as pip and that returned me to NSR.

Is all the extra medication needed?
At the start I was also advised to take Ibandronic acid to make the bones take up
calcium
and avoid osteoporosis, and also a PPI to line my stomach and supposedly prevent ulcers.

Long Term Avoidance of calcium
At my last GP blood test the
calcium
number was 'normal' but I understand that this only gives a number for the
calcium
in the blood. Other blood results are normal.

Calcium without sweeteners
Does anyone know of a
calcium
/D3 supplement without sucrose or other artificial sweeteners which a GP will prescribe? There are plenty of over-the-counter products but I haven't been able to identify one which my GP is happy to prescribe.

Calcium, vitamin D and protein
Recently someone posted about an article on the benefit of taking extra protein alongside
calcium
and vitamin D supplements. I am going to check my own diet to see how much protein I take. As I'm in my 70s I thought I didn't need as much but now I'm wondering ... the article makes a lot of sense.

If you have fibro with RA are you given meds for fibro as well ?
Earlier this year I was taken off all my medication because I could never go more than 6 weeks without antibiotics due to infections .Turns out I had a severely infected sub mandibular gland packed with
calcium
stones which made it impossible to have any treatment .

Thyroid Genetic Panel - Results
DI02 - suggest taken T4/T3 therapy,
calcium
and Vitamin D for low mood. PDE8B - TSH Signalling - The A allele on rs4704397 is linked to reduced thyroid sensitivity to TSH stimulation. This could result in higher TSH levels in order to produce normal levels of thyroid hormones (T4 and T3).

My PSA tripled in 8 months
I take
Calcium
, Magnesia and Zinc tablet about three times a week ,perhaps I should not. By the way, I found there are two ways of blood test, one is by nuclear medicine lab, the other by ordinary lab by serum. Which one is more reliable? My test is always done by nuclear medicine Lab.

Mum back in hospital.
No wonder she has been so unwell she has....Low potassium Low
Calcium
Low Magnesium That looks like it is affecting the electrodrods in her heart. So she is being hooked up to heart monitor and a drip during the night.
