Barbara, are you menopausal? Close to menopause? I'm not being nosy, just concerned. It's really important to get enough calcium as we age. You say you take 2 calcium pills a day -- how much calcium is in each? My doctor really drummed this into me -- BIG time -- when I started menopause, writing it on a slip of paper for me, which I've kept all these years: 1,200mg. calcium per day plus "D". Every time I visit the doctor, after the nurse takes my blood pressure, that's the first question she asks me: "Are you taking in 1,200mg. calcium a day, DAH-LING?"
