Thank you! I thought lifting weights was the right thing to do, so I am thankful for your advice. I am also not taking calcium, so an not sure what I should do. It would be great if doctors read this forum. Ok, I'll hang in there until I can see the Dr., but maybe I can find a closer appointment with a different rheumatologist. Thanks so much for your help. Really appreciated.

Calcium via diet is best. I take supplements due to a dairy allergy. I also take Vitamin D (2-3,000 units), Vitamin K, magnesium (and potassium in the form of low sodium V-8m for leg cramps).

I don't know what weight you are lifting and also if it involves bending over 🙂
