Hi. Milk and milk products are good sources of calcium. You should include these in your daily diet at least 3 times a day.

Asked for male, 71 years old from Hyderabad

My sister who is 72 years old had hemiplegia in 2009 and has recovered completely now. Since then, as per doctor's advice, she has been taking calcium tablets (shelcal) every day. Last month, she was diagnosed with the stone formation in her right kidney (staghorn) which I suspect due to excessive usage of calcium tablets. So, I asked her to stop using them. Is my layman's advice correct or not? Can she take calcium supplements (shelcal) indiscriminately for years together with a view to avoiding osteoporosis in future? Is there any harm in taking them regularly to avoid arthritis in future? Please advise.

Oral calcium supplements are not linked to nephrolithiasis, ask her to visit a qualified urologist and get her stone treated.

Most of anticold drugs contain sympathomimetic drugs
its effect is the opposite of alfusin. You may need antifungal drugs as you are using two antibiotics.

Sorry to know about your father. You mentioned ct guided fnac showed metastasis. From the information you have provided it looks like it is a case of lung cancer with brain and bone metastases. I would suggest you consult a oncologist for further guidance.
