Saw the Dr today. She is really concerned with my calcium and the quick on set of osteoporosis. Took some viles of blood and running tests outside our normal DS labs. Should have a plan of action on about 2 weeks.

I hope she understands our malabsorption and will give you a decent plan.  

Malabsorption was the main focus of our talk. I was so happy to hear her talk in this direction.

I hope everything works out well. That is one thing I am concerned about due to being post menopause and now a DS.  Let me know how it goes.  By the way, how much calcium do you take daily?

I started out taking 2,400mg a day. About a year ago I upped it to 3,600 mg. it didn't do a thing. I've now added K2 to my regime. We shall see what lies ahead.
