Yes, you are right. I am very tough on doctors. I guess it stems from my very bad experiences. I don't have a problem with a doc saying, "I don't know", as a matter of fact, I respect that. I get upset when some docs I have seen won't 'hear me', but dictate and poo-poo any ideas I have. You should be able to work in partnership with your doc, and that is the kind of relationship I prefer. I have even had a doctor tell me Heather's diet was ridiculous, to eat more fiber, and I just got up and walked out of the office. I don't owe that doctor a darn thing. They don't have a clue. So, I guess as with anything in life, there are good docs and bad docs, ya know.
Yes, I have also read about the osteoporosis connection and acid blockers/reducers. It does make sense to me, if too little stomach acid were to be your problem.
I will surely have it checked out. You take care, and stay well.
