Be careful with calcium, since you've had too much in the past. Tymlos appears to increase calcium. I have had too much calcium in my urine from Tymlos. I have had to cut way back on my calcium supplements and wonder if I should just be getting my calcium from food. I add up how much I get from food, then decide how much supplement to take. Some of the side effects, such as fatigue, weakness and confusion, may come from too much calcium. I also have urinary frequency and urgency.

Thank you, drsuefowler! I will monitor my calcium intake and see what changes by adding Tymlos to my routine and adjust as needed. My idiopathic hypercalciuria is not caused by too much calcium - it's an absorption issue thus high calcium consumption is preferred with idiopathic hypercalciuria.
