[quote=Anonymous]Op here. Just want to get back to you as to progress. 1) I reached out to my gyn who I really trust, and he also happens to be pretty high up there in our hospital system. He looked at my exam and (over email) he said it was fine, and to do what my primary said, although he recommended only 500mg calcium, and to get tested at the end of the year (not 18 months). I emailed back with my concerns and he said, really I'm okay. So, his reply created a perfect situation in that I feel like this isn't an impending crisis, which took the anxiety away, but left the previous resolve to not lose any more bone density. On a PP's advice I decided to go with the Garden of Life Bone Grow. It has magnesium and K2 and strontium and more. I bought it on amazon, but ended up in a boutique-type pharmacy yesterday and they had it. Then coincidentally the person who orders/stocks it was there (I am a little unclear if she was working at the pharmacy or working for Garden of Life). Anyways we got into a huge long conversation about all this and other lifestyle changes. She said, and it does say on their materials, that in a study of this product, there was actually bone growth. I'm skeptical because the study participants included people under 30, so it could be just those young people who grew bone and skewed the results for all participants. But I don't care because my goal is to just not lose more, and if I manage to gain any, then that's icing on the cake! This Bone Growth product has two separate pills: the D3/Calcium etc with food twice a day, and their bone growth factor on an empty stomach. I still plan to check out the endocrinologist. I've been getting the 15,000 steps a day and when I do a particular hike, there is a flat stretch and I'm sprinting it for 10 seconds or so. Wow that sure woke up unused muscles! The first time I did it, the next morning I woke up both sore and euphoric, which was so wild. I'll go back and re-read to make sure I comprehend some of the PPs dietary replies. Thank you so much, PPs! I'll keep checking back.[/quote]
