I turned vegan from the day I was diagnosed. I have problems with my knees, back and shoulders.
Hello everyone,
I hope this message finds you well.
I am currently dealing with multiple myeloma and have been experiencing significant problems with my knees, shoulders, and back. These issues are affecting my daily activities and overall quality of life. I am looking for advice on bone strengthening supplements or any other treatments that might help alleviate these issues.
Here are a few specific questions I have:
1. Supplements:
Are there any bone strengthening supplements that you have found particularly effective? If so, could you please share the names and dosages?
2. Medications:
Have any medications helped manage your bone health and joint pain? I am especially interested in any medications that have minimal side effects. Currently use Butec patches 30mcg.
3. Physical Therapy:
Has physical therapy been beneficial for anyone here? If so, what specific exercises or routines do you recommend for knee, shoulder, and back pain?
Thank you
