The picture is even further complicated by the fact that calcium is often taking in conjunction with a class of drugs known as bisphosphonates. Earlier this month, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued an alert regarding the possibility of severe and sometimes even incapacitating bone, joint and/or muscle pain in patients taking these drugs." http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/news/fullstory_60061.html Regards, Hope Waltman, Fibroid Forum and WH Forum Moderator http://www.hopeforfibroids.org http://www.doctorsinfoweb.com/doctors/whatsnew.htm Next message: Hope Waltman: "STD: 'Selective avoidance' does not reduce STD risk" Previous message: Hope Waltman: "ONCOLOGY: Biological Link Between BRCA1 and Breast Cancer Detailed"
