@A MyMyelomaTeam Member,
I take MRM Bone Maximizer III with MCHA. I take vitamin D3 & K2 with it, so it absorbs. If I don’t take it every day my legs cramp, twist, and twitch all night. I also have bone pain.

Robert,
I have Osteoporosis and arthritis. I haven't had treatment yet, but I do notice when I go out to eat, or eat salty food, or gluten my pain is worse. If you are taking steroids, they suck the calcium out of your bones, which makes it worse. Make sure you are taking a calcium supplement with MCHA, Vitamin D3 & K2.

Linda, I have read that walking with a weight vest might help to strengthen our bones💕

I have arthrosis in my hips. Bone on bone. One thing that has helped me is loosing 30 pounds. I also think eating red meat, for me anyway really made the inflammation worse. Also, I stopped taking Claritin because it wasn't helping my allergies. Then I noticed my joint pain was much worse. I started taking it again. It does seem to help my joint pain and stiffness. 🥰
