As I've been led to believe, there is a specific combination of hormones needed to get calcium to bond to bones in a way that is beneficial to us. My system will drink up calcium and quickly turn it into kidney and bladder stones. Yes, I've used K-2. Don't quit trying. You may want to ask your Dr. if any of the new drugs for women suffering calcium loss would help. These aren't on my formulary but maybe you can get them.
