Default Mrs D, and Rose PLEASE?

Just got back from a foot doc...x-ray, possible fracture...Not detected yet...but?

OK the issue is: Have been on the absolute cusp of osteo-porosis& penia for the last 8+ years. Now am post-meno-off hrt's and on aromatase inhibitors. Am on Keppra and receive IVIG monthly...

Doc says bone loss in the extremities is truly severe...as in adding a couple of decades to age-norm. I've been taking Fosamax [fer all the pros/cons] and calcium supplements... Somehow, I don't think merely doubling the calcium caps I seem to be 'inhaling' is going to do the trick now...Any advice as to the bestest sources and quantities of which what's I should take? Cannot have the B-6 as I'm over the limit w/my reg vits on that...Since changing calciium tabs to those w/o extra b-6, some aspects of nuropathy are improved? I seem to be getting extra gray hairs at the whole prospect! I really would like to keep the 'pepper' part in the S&P!

I didn't even FALL! That's the bummer part!

Thank you all, lovely people! - j
