Patient discussion about osteodynia.

Q. Can anyone help me. I have weak bones and the doctor advised me to take milk to boost my vitamin D. Can anyone help me. I have weak bones and the doctor advised me to take milk to boost my vitamin D. I hate milk and I hope Vitamin supplements are also available in the market. I can get natural Vitamin D from sunlight also. As I am averse to milk can I go for Vitamin D Supplement?

A. So if you don't wanna know about Realmilk, I'd recommend
Calcium/magnesium
Kelp (copper in the kelp will help to absorb the calcium also)
Cod liver oil (excellent natural source of vitamins A & D, double the dose)
Flax seed oil
Raw apple cider vinegar (puts the calcium where it's s'posed to go)

Q. Wake up at night with severe pains in the bones of lower leg I have had back problems for many years.

A. Could be something as simple as not enough water or calcium but you should see a Dr. Shin splints also comes to mind.

Q. What is Leukemia? My brother's best friend has been diagnosed with Leukemia. What is it? Is it dangerous? Can you recover from it?

A. Leukemia is the general name for four different types of blood cancers. In people with leukemia, the bone marrow produces abnormal white blood cells. The abnormal cells are leukemia cells. At first, leukemia cells function almost normally. In time, they may crowd out normal white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. This makes it hard for blood to do its work. After diagnosis, many people with leukemia do survive and live many good, quality years. The relative five-year survival rate has more than tripled in the past 47 years for patients with leukemia. In 1960-63, when compared to a person without leukemia, a patient had a 14 percent chance of living five years. By 1975-77, the five year relative survival rate had jumped to 35 percent, and in 1996-2003 the overall relative survival rate was nearly 50 percent.
