Guest guest Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 After a week of misery, I landed in the ER Sunday night with what I thought was appendicitis. Instead, it was a kidney stone. Wondered if anyone knows if the compounded Sustained Release T3 I'm taking could contribute to making stones? I know there is something that makes it timed release, and I know that Jan avoids that. I've heard something about T4/T3 and osteoperosis, which makes me think calcium is involved, but I'm obviously clueless as to any connections. I also read on this board someone connected Vitamin D to kidney stones. My Vitamin D initially went up after supplementation with Carlson's drops, then plummeted on the last labs, so I have been taking 8-10,000 per day. Too much? I've never connected kidney stones to anything except calcium intake. I don't supplement calcium at all, and my recent labs say I'm just mid-range or a tad above. I'm a little concerned as I have an upcoming Dr. S appointment, and he is requiring a Bio-metric test before the appointment. I have barely eaten for the last 10 days because I thought I had some sort of gastric problem. I'm also very uncomfortable buying vitamins just now to cover the cost of the test, without starting the research on what is causing the stones. Anyway, has anyone read of any connection? I'm willing to do anything to avoid the pain that I went through with that little evil stone. Thanks in advance, K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
