It is not appropriate to assume your kidney doc will or won't alter what you do on a regular basis today, but she should if it will improve your level of health & kidney function. There are many tools in a docs toolkit to manage a variety of problems and these are used based on your individual history, exam and test findings.

You are presupposing something. Maybe the doc will not stop your calcium. Also you can discuss all this and more about your concern on the visit and not worry now. Good luck
