@blowsmeaway2 you seem rather negative by your two posts? This site is member driven and except for inappropriate posts I don’t think it’s monitored by anyone from Mayo other than volunteer mentors. You say you had a drug reaction when you were 4 & 1/2? Why bring it up now? And concerning MK7/K2 please read!

jenasky, @blowsmeaway make the point that pharmaceuticals can cause harms that we don't always get warnings about and references she her own childhood experience. She knows about vitamin K2 and calcium though her own research and thinks it curious that we don't get advice on that through our physicians.
Mayo connect does have monitors who are also members (to a one with great advice) and a post can be unkind or even incorrect and remain. Blows' post was deleted because she used direct address instead of couched phrasing --"perhaps" or "you might consider."
To her point we are a little heavy on the pharmaceutical side here. While I'm on the pharmaceutic side, I never considered not taking a strong osteoporosis drug, I do think both fields of thought should have presentation.
To your point about negativity, there is much about osteoporosis that is negative. Maybe the most important aspect of this site is honesty of expression.
Gently, brother.
