I just had an appointment with a nephrologist (in consultation of the
upcoming operation for cancer on the kidney) and he wanted a list of
every prescription and other medication I take.  So, being the anal tax
type I am, I go in with every Rx listed AND every mg of vitamins and
minerals in the multivitamin I take daily.  My MD has me on Actonel and
calcium plus D for aged bones .  Nephrologist says "OFF".  Now I'm
looking longingly at the dry milk I load into my coffee in the morning.
 Loaded with calcium and D.  Drat!   And obediently took all my calcium
out of my pill box.

How can calcium be good for colon cancer and bad for kidney cancer?

Oh well........Nan, Type 2 since 1990
