I just spit coffee across the room. Lol. Sorry.
I take natures bounty brand just because my pharmacist recommended it, and I love my local pharmacy. Calcium 600+D is the dose my doctor recommended, you should ask your doctor as the recommended dose could be different for you. I had not heard about the vitamin K but that does not mean it isn’t valid. I live in the Pacific Northwest so my doctor has added a vitamin D prescription once a month. I guess I don't get enough sunlight. I am definitely less afraid of these infusions than I am of breaking more bones and having them not heal well.

@auntieoakley : Thank you for the brand/dosage information. I will try this for now until I discuss with my oncologist. Can’t hurt, for sure. I miss my annual visit with my son in Portland. Love the Pacific Northwest, have been all over Oregon, good part of Washington, and Northern California. It’s a dilemma, isn’t it? On one hand you need sunscreen by the gallon, not just in the summer, on the other hand you might want an artificial light source the remainder of the year to keep your mood and spirits up.
