@sunnyflower Hi Sunny, You have so much going on that it is hard to know what is what! My heart breaks reading about you. Our bodies do not discriminate in giving us tons of things, all at once. I want to mention a product that has kept my bone density pretty darn good, as I have osteopenia. It is called AlgaeCal Google their website. It is great for building your bones. I take a pill that depletes my calcium, so I supplement with AlgaeCal My last bone density was quite good, and that is amazing, because the pill I have to take can rob me of calcium. So your feet feel wet, too. Horrid. I also have the walking on sponges!!! Sometimes the sponges are replaced by pebbles, so I will take the sponges. Damn illness is nuts. How could our nerves make us feel such crazy things? And these things run the gamut from excruciating, to odd, to annoying, etc. Yes, distractions do help when possible. I also think a good glass of wine helps. I hate all of this. So hard. Just so hard. Love to you, Lori

Thanks so much Lori! Still waiting for results. I take a plant-based calcium. So far so good but being on daily steroids doesn't have a good prognosis. We'll see. I haven't broken any more bones in a while so yay! 🤗. I may have already said my endocrinologists have wanted me on an IV drug every 3 months but the side-effects can be uber serious along with the usual ones like nausea, etc. Meds are often a no-win bc of their side-effects. Everything in medicine is a risk/benefit ratio. Still though, I am extremely grateful for the care I receive! Extremely! Be well, Sunnyflower PS: does one ever catch up on all the post? It feels like I'm spinning my wheels trying to keep current. My eye strain has never felt so bad LOL, but I'm hooked on the blog, No Doubt! Everyone is really great! Warmest regards, Sunnyflower 😊
