What is a Cystometry/Cystometrogram (CMG)? Cystometry, or cystometrogram, with a pressure flow study is part of urodynamic testing (or UDS). These tests measure how well the bladder functions. They help diagnose problems related to urine control. These can be incontinence, difficulty emptying the bladder, overactive bladder, obstructions or frequent infections. Cystometry is used to measure how much urine the bladder can hold.
Tums - Expiration Date. I got a large package of Tums at a discount store for a really good price, but didn't notice the expiration date until later. They are marked June 2004 - I'd throw them out, but I remember my former boss who used to work at a pharmacy told me that asprin usually lasts much longer than its expiration date.
Calcium carbonate (Tums, Titralac, and Alka-2) is a potent and rapid-acting antacid. It can cause constipation. There have been rare cases of hypercalcemia (elevated levels of calcium in the blood) in people taking calcium carbonate for long periods of time. This can lead to kidney stones and kidney failure and is very dangerous.
