Progress - I think ....
HiApologies for the long post... Finally had a meaningful conversation with a GP at my practice (not my usual one but that didn't matter) & got results from CT scans. No blockages & 0 calcium so nothing to be alarmed about on that score. No further action required except to stop beta blockers. So

Does parathyroid hormone worsen osteoporosis?
I have just had a blood test and learn that my parathyroid hormone level is high/abnormal. (I learned from Google that the parathyroid gland is actaully nothing to do with thyroid level. It's so named because it is located in the neck behind the thyroid gland.) As I understand it the parathyroid hormone

Is anyone with CKD on Clonidine b/p drug?
I am stage 5, and had to be taken off Losartan because of hyperkalemia. My Neph gave me a new drug which I couldn't tolerate as it made my heart race. So she said maybe you dont need to be on a b/p med since that ofc visit it was only 130/xx. I subsequently had an appointment with my cardiologist

Sharing good news
firstly thanks for the great advice I got about what to expect at my first cardio appointment. after a period of time feeling breathless on exertion I got results of scans. my consultant said he was surprised that the results were so positive due to my many years as as a smoker. ( not smoked for ten

Need for Calcium supplements?
I have been on prednisolone for 10 months for PMR, recent flare at 7mg so now on 10mg until resolved. My Dexa scans show no significant bone loss, currently not taking any supplements. Should I commence them as still have some way to go on this journey!

Bisoprolol alternative to avoid cold extremities
Afternoon all, Despite 2 ablations my AFib episodes returned a year ago. Bisoprolol and flecainide seem to control it well, but I really struggled this winter with cold extremities. Despite plenty of layers, woollen socks, thick long skiing gloves I still have very cold fingers and toes. I tried

The Use of Low Dose Estradiol to Ameliorate the Effects of ADT on Bone Mass Density
I have been conducting a long-term n of 1 trial since January 23, 2021 using lose dose estradiol (E2) gel to counteract the effects of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) on bone mass density (BMD). I believe that I now have sufficient data to report that low dose transdermal E2, along with exercise and

Can a new drug mimic the effects of exercise on bone and muscle?
Looks like this is something we should look forward to and keep an eye out for approval. Researchers have recently discovered that a new drug called locamidazole may help to prevent loss of bone density and muscle mass during periods of inactivity, but it’s no substitute for all of the benefits of exercise

I was reading about this in the ADHD community. Sounds interesting.

Vitamin C
I've just been reading about Liposomal Vitamin C and wondered if anyone is taking this as it seems to be a good choice for people who are sensitive to ascorbic acid or calcium ascorbate.
