I haven't noticed any correlation, but I'll keep an eye on it and see if that's the case in me. I don't know about A, but C generates a lot of acid, and maybe that's causing other chain reactions. I wonder what would happen if you tried taking high doses of C with enough Calcium to balance the acid/base levels in your system, whether that would also take care of the lump on your bone? My understanding is that Calcium acts as an anti-inflammatory, too. .:. Craig
