How much is too much D3
Any views on taking 10,000 iu d3 daily? There’s evidence that it’s ‘safe and well tolerated’ I went to see my bone consultant today, he wasn’t impressed by me taking this amount but my calcium level is good and my dexa results have gone from -2.6 to -2.1 in 2 years I also take k2 and magnesium ,

ANRC Plus instead of B complex?
The below is my own work which I am simply sharing. I have no other agentia other than to invite comments and zero expectations. I make no claim to legitimacy or accuracy. I have less than zero medical training. It makes sense to me that any supplement should be checked to insure that an ingredient

Alendronic acid and depression
I came off Alendronic Acid because I didn’t think it was agreeable with me, it was a couple of months ago and I can’t remember the exact reason but it was on the suggestion of a consultant I was seeing for another reason and I have been fine. I started to take it again 3 weeks ago because I knew I

Best blood values
Already learned a lot in this forum and from other sources about optimal blood values for Vit D and B12. Just wonder if similar recommendations exist for zinc, selenium, iodine, iron and omega 3 and 6? I’m on WFPBD, take some supplements and check my blood values every three months, some more expensive

When does supplementation become toxic or counter-productive?
My Dear Fellow Adventurers, Firstly, thank you for the wealth of information and inspiration - having this commuity makes so much difference! I have a question today, that I have already asked both my doctor and pharmacist (neither were able to help): as I add a new supplement every few months

teeth whitening
good morning everyone I don’t know if anyone on here has had any experience with tooth whitening products, only I’ve seen an advert for a tooth whitening powder which I’m very tempted to try, especially as it’s dentist approved and is peroxide-free. I’m just wondering about the Alendronic Acid I’m

Consultant also prescribed Tibolone but when I read the data sheet it terrified me and I haven’t took any yet. I’m feeling more depressed than ever

alendronic problems
just trying to check my stomach ache, dizziness at times, reflux and chest pain are all from alendronic acid, as I take statins as well. Feel bloated and lack of appetite. What alternatives are there to increase bone strength? Anyone have these symptoms ?

Taking Alendronic Acid & Dentists won't touch me!
Wanted to have some dental work done & on speaking to a specialist dental surgery, when they heard I was taking Alendronic Acid & Prednisolone they just didn't want to touch me. Have been to visit my regular dentist today who said anything like an extraction or implant he wouldn't do & I would have

9 years and counting with PMR!
Feeling frustrated having been 'diagnosed' with PMR in 2014, initially controlled with prednisolone and then Methotrexate introduced in 2018 after I queried my diagnosis and treatment plan. Initially I was able to reduce preds down to 5 mg daily with 25mgs methotrexate weekly but I am ow struggling again

Will Alendronic Acid affect my RLS?
I have Osteopenia and have been advised to start taking Alendronic Acid to prevent me developing Osteoporosis but am worried it might make my RLS worse. I take Requip and seem to have it under control.

ursodeoxycholic acid
hi everyone, Hope your all well. I’ve had pbc for about a year now. I take 500mg of ursodeoxycholic acid twice per day. I suffer from waves of nausea at different times throughout the day. Today I spoke to Gastroenterologist on the phone and he told me to take the medication 1000mg at bedtime. Does

Closer to checkmate to Parkinson's (1): what Dr. Phillipson says.
This year 2023 marks the 10th anniversary of the publication of a writing by Dr. Phillipson and an interview about its content. Oliver T. Phillipson is a Harvard scientist.

Dexa scan
I thought I would share my experience. I have just been for the above, having questioned the need for me to be taking Alendronic acid. I was told by my GP that I “might as well” take it when started on Steroids. I hated the ritual of having to get up earlier on the day I had to take it and then when

Alternative and adjunct medications for RLS
Here's an interesting article on some of the less common medications for RLS. It may be of interest to members who have exhausted all other medication options. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9983500/ Keywords: clonidine, dipyridamole, perampanel, amantadine, ketamine, carbamazepine,

Severe Osteoporosis - Understanding the scan report and treatment
As a WF, age 60 - the last several years have seen some big health scares / diagnoses: FYI: After a torn shoulder rotator cuff injury in Oct 2022 and PT making the pain worse, my orthopedic Dr finally suggested an MRI. Results did not have good news. He then suggested a surgical repair with "bone

Questions about taking Alendronate (Fosomax) and hydroxyeurea
I have Et with Jak 2. I was diagnosed last year when my platelets were around 600. After having a physical and a bone scan my gp just recommended taking alendronate for osteopenia. I walk 3 miles a day and work out. I have concerns about doing this especially with taking hydroxy. I have a friend whose

Hyaluronic acid excess
Hello Given the serious and worrying range of symptoms that are discussed here, I hope it's not annoying to ask about a minor one. I'm wondering if anyone else has a problem with excess hyaluronic acid and if so what facial moisturising creams are appropriate? A post I saw here some months ago helped

Has anyone else had a problem with loose teeth?
I went to the dentist yesterday who said 4of my teeth are becoming loose, probably due to Alendronic acid and Carbamazepine ( for trigeminal neuralgia ) He said my dental hygiene was excellent. The only available treatment on the NHS is a denture! I am being referred to a periodontal specialist but
