Is Anyone Managing Your Condition Without Medication And Instead Using Natural Supplements Such As Calcium, Vitamin D, Etc?

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Cheltenham, UK

I’m afraid of becoming medicated and their side effects, so use a Bone supplement providing Vitamin D, K2, magnesium, etc. Plus upping my daily dietary calcium and minerals, gentle exercising daily. So far so good and just take two Ibuprofen in the morning to allow me to move more freely.

A MyOsteoTeam Member

So far no drugs, but I don't know how my bones are looking right now without another scan. I'm not having any issues at this point though and just trying to be careful.
