@clevelandguy I was told to take a 600mg calcium twice a day and a vid D once a day by oncologist to combat the bone loss caused by ADT. I have wondered if all the extra calcium will translate into kidney stones? NOT saying it will, but I am wondering? My baseline DEXA scan showed me with osteoporosis. Gotta watch this if you are on ADT long term.

@oldgreenpaint
I wonder if the calcium loss from the bones (due to ADT) ends up as calcification if the arteries.
