I was told to take vit D 5000 a day for Osteopenia (borderline Osteoporosis). Is it good to take
calcium also? Should I go to my regular doctor of a specialist.

Suggestions.

My body doesn’t seem to absorb vit d even when I was taking 10000units as my level was 17.

I include items that contain vit d in my food,
My density score was T-2.9 when diagnosed year ago at 58

Do you have any kind of intestinal disorder like ibs, crohns, something that would maybe cause malabsorbtion of minerals and vitamins? Because I have a lot of trouble absorbing nutrients too. I've had… read more

Calcium And Vitamin D

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Toronto, CA

Calcium supplements cause constipation for me and since I have had issues with this due to a bowel obstruction surgery, as well as IBS with fibromyalgia, more of that issue I really don't need. Is there any calcium product that is less constipating? I do take 3000mg vit D and 200 mg Magnesium daily and eat a lot of calcium rich foods.

Good Morning Everyone. I Hope You Are All Well. Anyone Have Any Experience, Taking Fosamax? I Am Due To Start It Due To Bad Scan Readings?

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Port Saint Lucie, FL

I have osteoporosis for several years and have been putting off taking any meds as I am scared with all the reported side effects. I was sent to a rheumatologist and he says I am at risk for fracture as my scan readings are at critical levels and I must take something. He suggests Fosamax to start. I know I have no choice and am very worried but he explained my probability of having a fracture is much greater than any side effects I take calcium and Vitamin D. I appreciate any insight all… read more

Diagnosed With Osteoporosis

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭

I was diagnosed today. I haven’t stopped crying. I have been a very healthy person. I’m scared after reading about the side effects of all those medications. I wonder if there are people who have decided not to take any medication and treat it just with a good diet and exercise. Is that a good idea?
Thanks,

What Is Your Favourite Calcium (and Supporting Vitamins And Minerals) And Why?

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Vancouver, BC

I've been taking Algaecal (the non mail order one, so no strontium). And then Vitamin K in my Vitamin D. But I've been thinking of trying calcium citrate alongside Lorna Vanderhaeghe's Bone Booster. I do suffer from constipation so not sure if I can handle the calcium citrate or not.

Many thanks,
Wendy
