I plan to start Evenity soon. Since my family has a history of heart issues my doctor suggested getting a Coronary Artery Calcium Score which is a CT scan to see if I would be susceptible to risk of stroke etc. My score came out to be the best possible. Have read that it would not be advisable to take Evenity if you have heart issues in the last year or two... As I understand it, Evenity doesn't cause issues in a healthy heart. Read up on what is available online, be factually equipped on whatever you do. Good luck!
Try to get off the PPI. Decreased acid in your stomach decreases absorption of calcium and other minerals, such as iron. Adjusting your diet? Taking a supplement which keeps acid from coming up? See a gastroenterologist.
