hi everyone-my son is six years old and has had a true dairy allergy since birth therefore has had all dairy products removed from his diet and drinks soya milk i have asked my gp a number of times if it is necessary to supplement his diet with calcium tablets or similar and have been told not to that he will be getting all the vitamins and minerals he requires but my son has broken both his arms quite severely in what i would consider a very minor accident and i am beginning to think there is a problem with his bone density-has anyone else had any similar problems?i intend to speak to gp again very soon to request some further testing be done. thanks
