continue working out with weights (body sculpting for muscle development
which also helps bone density), and now take 2,000 vitamin D, along with my
calcium. For 6 months I was on Boniva. I made a Bio Art DVD on
titled "Bone Density" which was featured at the Moscow at the "Art and Science
in the Post-Biological Age" <A

where you bone loss resides. You will have another one in a year to see
the rate of loss or if it has declined. You can reverse it now, with
Boniva and similar medications. But if your loss is minimal, the calcium
with vitamin D, and exercise will help.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
