So glad to find you again.<br />Your post is significant. Even those of us who do take supplements, forget how important being consistent with them is. Magnesium is sooo important for so many issues in our body. Vit D is the supplement that research found fights CANCER! You have to take Calcium WITH Vit D in order for both to benefit. I found this out at the time..I had breast cancer. Im a 5 yr. survivor now!<br />I did go on a med that my DR. said would help with menopause and Fibromyalgia...She did NOT tell me how HORRIBLE it would be to stop this med. EFFEXOR. It only worked for a year and then I noticed my sysmptoms getting worse..sweating ect. I am OFF it now..but the withdrawls of dizziness (by the way miss ONE dose and it does this) HORRIFIC.<br />I've learned to research ANY med a doctor suggest. But with GOD"s help ..Im going as MED free as possible and researching Vitamins that are essential to our health as we age.<br />Thanks for your post...hope to visit you often now.<br />God bless..<br />HOPE<br />HOPEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14593612195595034233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5790575783281900923.post-80196981041376799362015-04-09T15:22:39.869-05:002015-04-09T15:22:39.869-05:00So glad your doing better!

Another thing you may want to try is hyalauronic acid, specifically a product called Baxyl.

Like you, I'm outside a lot because I'm a gardener. So it really floored me last year when my doctor told me I was vitamin D deficient. How could that be ? I thought we only needed 15 minutes of sun a day, and I was outside for hours! She did put me on vitamin D pills, and I'm picking up lab results today to see where I am now, but since she didn't call me, I must be good. Recently, Dr. David Agus spoke on CBS This Morning saying that Vitamin D pills is not doing anything for people taking it, but after researching this, I believe he means that it's not doing anything for our heart. It obviously is doing something for our other parts. I was going to stop taking it, but after reading your story, I will stay with it, because I have some joint and hip aches, and have just started walking again for my heart. Thank you for sharing your experience with this. I think we are much more likely to listen closer to our bodies after hearing from another woman than we are the many doctors that we visit. <br /><br />pattyPattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14980646848805011625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5790575783281900923.post-36839357367341465102015-04-08T05:47:29.215-05:002015-04-08T05:47:29.215-05:00So very happy for you.

You wou...Thank you so much for posting this Carrie. You would not believe the perfect timing of this post. You would think here I would get enough sun exposure but after reading your post do you know what I am thinking that maybe I am deficient in Vitamin D. I have been experiencing joint pain mainly in my wrists and feet, and occasionally knees and hip for some months now but as it not overly painful - just achy I was ignoring it. But would you believe today - I popped out to the secondhand barn down the road and was walking on the hard concrete and the guy in there asked me if I had hip pain! I must have been limping unconsciously! I had been walking around on the concrete floor in thin soled pumps and realized my ankles were aching more than ever and they still are. I also woke up this morning feeling stiff with aching arms. I thought as I read your post I must get myself some vitamin D then remembered buying some a while ago as I had read it was a good vitamin for older women to take. Just checked in my fridge and sure enough there's a half full bottle of Vitamin D3 clinical strength. Wonder if it improves memory too so I don't forget to keep on taking it! I am starting these up again right now and I will report back! You are a gem Carrie!
