Confused
After having a compressed fracture L2 six weeks ago without a reason I got a Dexa Scan my results are -2.7 thigh and -4.8 spine. My GP prescribed Alendronic Acid tabs and Accrete D3 and Calcium. He then changed his mind on the Accrete because the x-ray I had which discovered the L2 fracture said there

Vitamin K
Hello out there! I’ve been unable to get a doctor’s advice or even a comment on the wisdom of taking vitamin D3 with vitamin K2. I read on Google (!) that D3 ensures the absorption of calcium while K2 directs calcium to the bones and prevents it from depositing where it shouldn’t eg arteries, organs

Help for a friend with corticobasal degeneration.
Dear forum friends: I have a friend who has been diagnosed with corticobasal degeneration. I can't find much specific information about this atypical parkinsonism. Except for Dr. Costantini's reference in the famous interview (number 30) or the comments on medical cannabis oil, I can't find any information

Started Levo and wondering when I might start to feel better - any supplements I need to add?
I finally managed to get the GP to try me on 25mcg Levothyroxine, which I have been taking for just under a month now. My results before starting were TSH - 5.91 (0.34-5.60mu/l) Serum free T4 - 10.2 (7.9-20pmol/l) Serum T3 - 6.2 (4.00 - 6.60pmol/L) I have also stopped eating gluten, and am also taking

Constipation and magnesium supplements
Has anyone got constipation and hard stools problems in hypothyroid / Hashimoto? Stools are very hard despite a good diet and fiber consumption. I only take vitamin D3 and Calcium 400 mg, should magnesium be added to my diet, if so, which one and how much? My hip density bone scan is 666, not so good

Starting investigation - Blood Test queries..
Hi! After my first post I managed to speak to a GP and mentioned to them that my most recent TSH was elevated (5.63) along with other stuff and he agreed that at the least I have subclinical hypothyroidism and agreed to do more bloods including a cortisol test to check for Cushings due to my symptoms

Prednisolone/Vitamin D3 timing
I’ve been suffering symptoms of PMR since June 2020 and started treatment in October 2020. Started on 15mg Pred and now down to 11mg - reducing by 1mg every 6 weeks. So far so good! Following original advice from GP I take all medication at 8am with breakfast - this includes Pred, Vitamin D3, Omeprazole

Would Adding 10,000 IU a day of D3 would be a good thing to complement my Niacin 250 mg a day? Maybe NOT
Sometimes I'm Stupid. This is a re-write of my post extolling the virtues of vitamin D3 based on misreading a study and thinking down was up and left was right. I would just delete it but some people have seen it and I want the correction to be here. This is the trial from 2016 that had me excited:

Augmentation hit my body hard. The pramipexole was making the RLS worse. After 3 years of taking 1mg once a day I stopped, cold turkey. I do not recommend the sudden stop! For three nights it was hellish. Bizarre behavior, intense symptoms and unrelenting misery were my companions on those three nights

Vitamin D3
Hi, I am trying to find a good D3 plus K2 to take but I cannot take the Better for You one as this has citric acid and I have to avoid that. I was looking at Purolabs and wonder if anyone has had any experience with their vitamins? I also struggle with big tablets! Thanks in advance.
