I just needed a phosphate binder whenever I know that I would eat some food or drinks with phosphorus because I could not afford to have the level of phosphorus in my blood to rise for the reason that it might exacerbate my hyperparathyroid condition which I know was the result of my chronic hyperphosphatemia.
So I just do not want the imbalance in my body to go unchecked that is why even though this medicine is expensive I just have to take it continuously so that my phosphorus levels won't rise and cause my distress in my body.
I am also in a strict diet and I try to avoid foods containing milk because of my lactose intolerance and I blame my genetics over it because my ancestors are not milk consumers. Too bad because milk is one of the foods that I love but my guts hates it although I can have some if I would to take Lactase which is an enzyme that will help me digest milk.
Milk also contain lots of phosphorus which I am trying to avoid which is the reason as well for my dairy food avoidance.
Now I am just confident that my phosphorus won't go high and in fact it was in its normal level the last time I had been tested so I am happy that it will in combination of my Cinacalcet will make a good difference in my bone health.
It is working together with my diet due to the fact that I have a very good improvement in my back pain issues so maybe in the future I will no longer have pain if I would continue this medication and with the help of God and the continued prayers of my friends all over the world I can pass through all this or at least control it so that my Leontiasis will not also progress any further, I think that all is in the right track lately.
