*hypocalcemia? I’m sick, give me a break.
I am personally annoyed by the fact that hypocalcemia causes tetany and hypercalcemia causes weakness and not the reverse as the electrochemical gradients would imply. Stupid sodium channels

Giving unnatural amounts of milk while a calf is growing in her
That wears them down

any thoughts on calcium infusions for refractory shock with hypocalcemia iCa <0.8?
I think dose probably matters a lot (bombing patients with huge intermittent boluses may not help)
there's no good human data on controlled, low-dose Ca gtts
I've had cases where this seemed to help a lot🤷♂️

Chelation is used to manage metal toxicity, and in the absence of this (as is the case for things like autism), it can cause life-threatening (even fatal) electrolyte disorders.

A tank of warm water to force her to stand up again.
These are tricks of the evil #dairy industry.
She has to stand there for hours often through the night.
This cow has hypocalcemia and needs a veterinarian.
But this is cheaper.
