HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your mother I don't know why every body all over the world became too much conscious for the calcium although the daily need of this can be taken with dietary supplement then no need to take the extra supplement of this, it is better to stop the calcium tab, hope this information helps you have a nice day.
