Thank. Are you a C and still able to take this calcium without getting more C? How many milligrams a day do you take? Do you have to take anything else to conteract the effects....like Miralax or fiber supplements?

I have been taking cal/mag in the form of citrate, but still get constipated. I even take Natural Calm magnesium to make it more of 1:1 ratio instead of 2:1. I worked up slowly, but maybe I need to reduce and begin again. It's so frustrating....but I know my future health is in danger without the calcim.

I do take the calcitonin nasal spray for the bones...but it seems that half the time it drips back out!

Do you take any of the prescription drugs? Which one? I've heard they cause major GI distress, which is what keeps me from them. My mom and her friend took Actonel and it killed their stomachs...and they don't even have GI issues.

What are some weight bearing exercises?
