@jmla if you don’t mind, could you share some of the food that contains high calcium that you eat on a daily basis?

Also, have you and your doctor discussed what to do after tymlos? It seems a popular one is Reclast. If your doctor prefers a different one, do you mind sharing the reason behind his choice?

Thanks a lot!

Hi @mayblin. I really like Kefir which has 390mg per serving. I also eat calcium fortified cereal, which has 200mg in a serving, so with milk it’s like 550-600mg just in my morning cereal. Sardines with the bones in has 200mg per can; calcium fortified orange juice has 375mg per serving (but a lot of sugar, so I drink 1/2). Plus dark green veggies, Greek yogurt, cheese (one stick of part skim string cheese has 150mg); even some breads have 50mg per slice. I love dairy so I do have an easy time getting my calcium, but I understand that not everyone can consume that much (or any) dairy.

I haven’t talked with my doctor about treatments yet. We will probably discuss the post-Tymlos strategy after my 3-month bloodwork comes back. I will ask about Evenity and Reclast.
