Very low D2 and Osteoporosis
D2 Question..... I have osteoporosis and my last scan remained unchanged. Taking calcium, k-2, magnesium, D3 etc. The lady that performed my last scan asked me if my doctor had checked my D levels. I did not think so and therefore I asked my doctor if she had ordered that and she had not. I was

Symptoms improved. Plan of action going forward. Do’s and Dont’s
Hi All. Increased Pred from 20 to 25 mg six days ago. Symptoms have improved markedly. Blood test results from yesterday also going in the right direction. CRP down to 22 from 106 (still too high though). ANCA test for vasculitis was a weak positive but the follow up tests were normal. PV tests gone

Scared!
Over the last year I have been getting palpitations and feeling out of breath more easily than I think I should for my age - I am only 49. In recent months I've noticed a tightness in my chest when I walk for more than 10 minutes walk quick, up hills or up and down stairs too much or too quick running

Zoledronic acid infusion - side effects sound horrendous. Any advice?
Hi folks, My osteoporosis consultant has recommended an intravenous infusion of Zolendronic acid, as I can't stomach the Alendronic acid tablets. My last DEXA scan was January 2019 - the numbers I can't remember but they were at a low level yet not low enough for treatment. Consultant says they are

Supplements during Covid
Hi Is it wise to take supplements as suggested widely by the general public as a means of providing immunity because of covid 19.? Its concerning since immunosuppressants are doing the opposite. I think 🤔 I know of people loading up on zinc, vitamin C & D, etc. I'm just on my regular multivitamin

Sardines on Toast. Under the grill, or not?
I need to up my calcium intake, but haven't had sardines on toast since I was a child. I can't remember if you put the sardines on the toast, and then under the grill (like cheese), or if you eat them cold on the toast? I do remember that when I was old enough to make my own that I used to take the

Failed Chemo 101
A few weeks ago, I mentioned that I had enrolled in a trial using Docetaxel and Radium 223. Fifteen minutes into the first infusion of Docetaxel, I had a reaction that affected my breathing and dropped my blood pressure and pulse, but cleared after stopping the infusion and then reducing the flow rate

Feeling low after docs appointment - questioning myself again
Hi all, just had a telephone appointment with doctors to discuss my Medichecks results as shown below. I don't know why being dismissed AGAIN has upset me so much but it really has. According to him this can't possibly be a thyroid problem and my high antibodies don't indicate much and certainly not

I thought it was thyroid but seems to be calcium deficiency
Hi, I recently have been very tired, depressed, very forgetful and fatigued and recently waves of dizziness (yesterday and today - feels like an inner ear thing). I thought that perhaps my hashimoto's was playing up but no, I went to the doctor for blood tests and they did a full blood count as well

Probiotic caused me diarrhea!
Hello, I have been taking probiotic spec for the gut, 25 billion live bacteria; it also includes digestive aid and vegan calcium. It’s been roughly 3 months and for the past 2-3 weeks I started to get diarrhea. At first thought it was my medication or vitamin? Someone mentioned that probiotics can

Weird side effect or issue from T4?
About half an hour/one hour after taking Levothyroxine, me head feels 'swimmy' a bit like if you've ever had
valium
or lightheadedness after a drink on an empty stomach. It's not very pleasant (a bit like a virus) and it seems to go on for the rest of the day.

Driving and epilepsy
Did anyone know that
valium
can stop seizures? I just found that out a few years ago. I'm desperately trying to get prescribed here in Las Vegas but it's near impossible. Does anyone drive? I know how careful I need to be. I will not drive if I dont sleep or dont feel safe enough to drive.

Information about REMS Echolight scan for osteoporosis
Does anyone have experience with this new type of bone scan that measures both bone density and bone quality? It has been used in Europe but is relatively new to the US. I am interested in this because I have very low DEXA scores in my spine -4.1 and hip -2.8. No fractures to date but my doctor would
