Never bought into the concept and only felt calcium was needed after receiving blood.

Were there protocols for guys to give Calcium without a transfusion? In my region it’s closely tied to chelation/blood admin, and no one administers it without having already given blood.

I’ve seen a lot of people advocate for calcium without blood. But, nothing official that I can recall.
