A member asked:
If you have chronic low bicarb, what is the test to determine if your bones are being dissovled away (though leacing to buffer ph)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Low Bicarb: Would want to know why you have low bicarb (i.e. Metabolic acidosis, respiratory alkaloids, or mixed). Once the diagnosis is determined, then treatment ensues in a timely fashion before bone dissolves away.
