You know about TUMs...and supposed calcium enhancer..the acid in the stomach is what the tums is getting rid of and its that acid which is needed to break down calcium so the body gets overloaded with unassimilated calcium. Another unscientific explaination.

By tissue salts, are you referring to the potency of calc-p? 6x or 12x?

Its acidum phos who is the first remedie here, then maybe calcium carb, the key is pepsi, it contains ac phos, and that dissloves bones!! It has to be stopped, all cola types, and coofe, pluss refined sugars.
intake of omegea 3-and 6 is also beneficial.

And how should the ac phos be taken?

OOOne dose 200, once, and stp cola, coffe, chocolate with coffe, a day before.

48 year old woman broke her upper arm in three places December 1998. She doesn't even know how it broke. It is still cracked, shakes if too much pressure is applied. She smokes, drinks a lot of Pepsi. Has been eating Tums religiously for the past 13 years, since she was pregnant with her first child.
I was thinking that calc-phos might help the bone to heal. But not sure if one dose of 200c is best or repeated doses of a lower potency would be better.

I would go for the tissue salts for this at 3 weeks on 1 week off, for a few months! The other remedy that heals stubbon bones is Thyroidinum 200. See Boericke, Thyroidinum page 647 - delayed union of fractures. Whether this is too late to try though I really don't know.

Re -tissue salts. There was a long discussion on this a few months back and I couldn't bear to go through all that again. See if you can dig it out in the archives. The tissue salts are 6x as described by Dr Schuessler.
