Yep, Potassium checked, routine U & Es showed low Ca(corrected calcium which is more accurate for those of us in chronic disease states/post thyroid surgery) and nil else, I was on 600mg Ca and doubled it and the Mg to two under drs advice to nil effect. Just spoke to Resp physician who said symbicort & spiriva can cause the leg pains (albeit unusual, but got that one down pat!)I have POTS anyway and ECG done shortly before the 24hr dose due, and getting worst arrhythmias at night.

So complex, so very, very complex. Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate any ideas. Bee

“Dr. Diana will always hold a very special place in my heart for her selfless devotion to helping everyone, not just the Ehlers-Danlos community. I hate to think what my life would be without her insight and guidance.”
