Hi Charlotte, Have you tried a natural approach? I would like to tell you about 2 things. The 1st. is called OsteoProCare. This is an excellent source of calcium. OsteoProCare is an easily absorbed liquid mineral dietary supplement. One ounce provides 1200 mg of calcium (120% US DV). Calcium must be in a form to be readily absorbable (liquid) and also have magnesium among other things. Calciums use in the body is directly related to it's ability to pass through cell membranes. Certain foods we eat such as sugar block proper calcium absorption. The 2nd. thing I wanted to tell you about is called FlexeoPlus. A dietary supplement with glucosamine, MSM, & ipriflavone. Numerous studies have revealed specific, natural nutrients & supportive compounds that help support healthy joints. * Those nutrients, glucosamine, MSM, & ipriflavone, are the basis for FlexeoPlus. Proven benefits of these ingredients include the potential to: 1. Improve joint flexibility. 2. Enhance calcium absorption. 3. Maintain healthy cartilage. 4. Maintain healthy connective tissue. This is also in a liquid form. Also I would like to recommend a great book which you can get at your local library called: "Foods That Fight Pain" by Dr. Neal Barnard. If you have any questions, or if I can help you in any way you can email me at: crazyaboutcats2@webtv.net. Good Luck to you! Alana (Lonnie) Oelschlegel
