Can NDT help with low calcium levels?
Since my total thyroidectomy in April I have been on put on 125 mcg of Levothyroxine and am tolerating it quite well ( no gastro problems like with most tablets and energy levels ok ) except for extreme muscle stiffness and joint pain. Calcium levels tend to be fluctuating between ‘ normal’ and low.

Does Afib have a connection with Hyperparathyroidism
I've had AF for 20 years .2 .5 years ago I had blood tests for Calcium and PTH after breaking a wrist chopping down Olive trees. I was diognosed with Hyperparathyroidism as the calcium was high and the PTH high as well as a dexa scan showing osteopenia, following this I had to have a couple of stents

vitamin K2
Does anyone take vitamin K2 supplements? There are claims that it reduces calcium deposits in arteries. If so, would it cause problems for PV patients?

Amlodipine- calcium channel blockers
Update: Consultation with cardiologist pushed back till October. In the interim, I called my GP to discuss side effects of Bisoprolol and, the fact they are not reducing my BP. I have been told to reduce the Bisoprolol dose to 1.25mg per day and take it at night.-see how we get on for a week. If

Medication to treat AFIB and hair losss
I have been on Apixaban, diltiazem (a calcium channel blocker) and Flecainide for AFIB. Initially I was on only the apixaban and diltiazem but they had no effect and my AFIB occurred much more frequently and was getting worse. My cardiologist then put me on Flecainide. That was in May 2023 and I’ve

Update on Cholesterol
Hi Everyone! Just thought I'd share a small but positive update on my previous posts. I had some tests ran earlier in the year due to family history of heart problems, My ECG, Echo and CT Angiogram/ Calcium score was all good, my only negative was some follow up bloods I got done around the same time

Six compression fractures in lower spine
I've had six compression fractures in the last three months, all treated with kyphoplasties. On Fosamax and calcium citrate plus vitamin D3. Dexa score is -2.9. Should I be on something stronger?

24 hr Calcium Urine Test
I would be interested in knowing what results others have received on this test since being on Pred. I know Pred leaches Ca from the bones. That Ca goes somewhere and if it's not hanging out in the blood, then most likely it's being dumped by the kidneys. Or so it seems to me. It could be plaquing up

PLMD and withdrawal
Three weeks ago I stopped (after tapering slowly) gabapentin. I have also been reducing morphine sulphate from 8mg by .01mL every 5 days for the last three weeks. PLMD off the charts. I take 2mg lunesta every 3 nights -- and not more -- in the hopes of not getting addicted. Those nights are better

Patchy Ground Glass
6/28 - Per my cardiologists I had a Calcium Score done to measure my cardiac risk. I found out that my score was Zero (best you can get), but they found patchy ground glass - biggest 9mm - likely inflammatory. Calcium Score - only focuses on 30-35% of the lungs because it’s a heart scan and not

Stopping Letrozole
Good afternoon. My wife had breast cancer 5 years ago. Lorraine was treated in Newcastle with surgery/radiotherapy. Happily all is good. Lorraine has been on Letrozole for nearly five years and here in Scotland the practice is to stop the Letrozole at the five year mark. My wife is nervous about

Ibrance and supplements
I belong to those who are very careful in taking food supplements. My oncologist recommended not to take calcium and vitamin D because I have a high level of calcium in my blood. I mainly use vitamin C, and I try to compensate everything else from food. I am 69 years old and use Ibrance 100 + fulvestrant
