Hello drsuefowler,
Yes, the calcium levels at 10.8 we're going on a blood draw, actually twice, once in January and again in March. I'm January I was going to an alleged bone specialist at the CORE Institute in Arizona. She never followed up with me on my blood work results. I was disappointed and changed doctors, and now I go to an endocrinologist. They took another blood draw and my calcium levels were still at 10.8. I've never had high calcium in my blood, so the Endo told me to stop taking Tymlos. I was on it for just short of 11 months. I'm going in for blood work again on the 27th, and it will be two weeks off Tymlos and calcium supplements, so we will see if there is improvement. I will talk to my provider about ordering a lower dose of Reclast... I hope they will agree to that. When being infused with a lower dose, does this mean that another infusion will be administered sooner than 12 months?

@georginas,
Yes, @windyshores was supposed to have the lower dose Reclast every 3 months. Please let us know what you end up doing and your response.
