Osteoporosis (was: Re: Water)

December 30, 2001

I had a bone scan done in April 1999, age 46, and it showed some osteopenia

so I began taking calcium supplements (with magnesium), 1500-2000 mg calcium

daily per my test and was supposed to be retested in one year which has not

happened yet, changing doctors, health insurance etc. I also do know that I

have spurs on my neck as well as a bulging disc in my neck and confirmed

arthritis in my left knee.

I switched to the Phytocal and will continue when finances allow and hope to

get another scan done soon. It appears that my lumbar spine is no longer

straight. We are currently checking out if valtrex brought my HSV 1 & 2

readings back into normal range and checking some thyroiditis readings

requested by my neuro-opthamologist (due to my possible glaucoma that may be

lyme induced) that were off the chart as well as some Lyme readings from my

FL doctor that my PA doctor cannot duplicate.

I no longer drink milk due to the type O, am a secretor, and am hoping to

return to being 100% compliant to HB foods and take more of the type O

supplements again when finances improve, we had to move my daughter and my

two young grandsons up here in November without notice and its been survival

since and thru the holidays.

The article Ann found and posted below obviously was one of the more popular

ones as you can find it on the following url:

I have found it very interesting and perhaps many others will also. Thanks

for the reference Ann.

Hugs, Michele

effects of it. My bone density was very high also until after menopause when

it dropped.

the myth of osteoporosis. It was at www.nexusmagazine.com and was article

volume 5 #6. Oct/Nov 98. I just tried to bring it up and could not so it may

have been deleted by now or the site just down at the moment.
