Is it really necessary to take Alendronic Acid with these results?
I am 72 years old and have been diagnosed with osteoporosis/osteoporotic (Iam not sure which as the report refers to both). The results of my tests are as follows:- Indication: PTH Risk Factor: Excess alcohol, fractured wrist age 64, maternal hip fracture, Secondary Osteoporosis (PTH) Medication

Just a little rant
One thing I have learned since being diagnosed with Osteo is that this medical condition is a money maker for big pharma. I would encourage everyone to look up publication on actual studies done around the world with men and women with osteo and what they were given naturally along with calcium supplementation

RA Routine/Annual Blood Tests
I have a rheumatology appointment this week (unless cancelled by doctors' strike). It's been more than 4 years since I last saw a consultant face to face and want to check I am having all of the routine and annual blood tests that are recommended. I am on MTX and monthly have FBC - full blood count

Alternatives to milk
I know there are lots of milk alternatives, eg soy milk, oat milk etc - does anyone know which one is the best for people trying to avoid calcium? I don’t really want to try soy milk, and as far as I can see, oats have some calcium. Does anyone know of a calcium free alternative? Thank you.

Can Sodium or Calcium Channel Blockers Worsen SVT?
Okay, so I have a new med that I am trying, Propafenone. I have failed Norpace and also Flecainide. The problem I am having is that it seems that these medicines are making the SVT worse. I have Atrial Tachycardia. I cannot find any information about this. Where can I get more information? My doctor

radiation whack-a-mole?
My stage IV prostate cancer has gone castrate resistant ... I've been taking androgen blockers (Eligard injections 90 days plus daily 1gm of abiraterone) for five years. The primary treatment in summer 2018 was external beam radiation. In 2021 I had cyberknife radiation to new lesions in spinal vertebrae

Calcium Channel Blocker Use and Associated Glaucoma and Related Traits
Morning, I came across this and thought it would be interesting for members to read, but we all know that a medicine that is meant to fix something has so many side effects. Because when you take a pill it goes through so much of your organs to actually get to where it's meant to go and that includes

prolia and Actemra.
Hi everyone. I recently had an X-ray on my hip as I am having hip pain which causes my leg to give way when I transfer from my wheelchair. I have MS and GCA. The result of the X-ray was Osteoarthritis and “probable demineralization.” So when I saw my rheumatologist today I asked if I should have a DEXA

Heart Calcium Score scan scare
Hello all. Last week I had a scan done that my Dr ordered because I am diabetic and over 50. I can exercise fine with my heart rate to 170 at times. I don't have any heart disease in my family on both sides. My cholesterol and triglycerides are all well within normal range but..........this score

Statins
Wondering if any one has any input on my situation.My cholesterol levels are pretty high but my cardiac calcium score is zero and MRA is normal. I've seen 2 cardiologists who both say I don't need a statin because my score is zero however my neurologist says I do because of the high cholesterol. My MPN

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
