I Have Been Taking A Calcium Supplement (1000mg) For About
I have been taking a calcium supplement (1000mg) for about 10 months - since I hade surgery to remove one of my parathyroid glands last December. Also take vitamin D - around 2000 IU daily. My last blood work at the endocrinologist was in June and everything was ok then. Is this something I should likely continue indefinitely or would there normally be a time when I would stop taking the supplement?
