I have osteopenia and was prescribed Prolia. Decided to seek another opinion and referred to an exercise physiologist. Undertaking exercise program In an attempt to stop progression. Has anyone else tried this and how successful was it?
Yes, Lorraine, i did. I was diagnosed with osteopenia and immediately increased my daily walking which is obviously a weight bearing exercise. The result of my next DEXA scan was normal. Really.
Are you familiar with Osteostrong? Is it effective?
I eat anything with calcium, D3, magnesium in it. I also did see where Vit K was good.
I'm not allowed to take NSAI voltarol ibuprofen etc gel or tablets is there anything I can use that is safe?
I can only use the CBD drops under the tongue. The salve upset my sensitive skin.
I was diagnosed via a Dexascan by my GYN. She has since retired, and I would prefer someone who is trained in osteoporosis.

Does anyone know how good Arnica is? Especially for pain in hands from arthritis.

Other than stretches / physio exercises anything I can do about it?
Feels that a well fitted back support would help ?
I am 81. Was very fit before fractures occurred
I think a back brace helps a lot. I don’t wear one regularly . They are hot. But if my back acts up and tries to go out on me or if it hurts badly I will wear a Muller back brace I bought from… read more
Does anyone recommend anything natural? I don't want to take any meds bcz of severe side effects. I have severe osteoporosis pretty much all over. Thanks in advance for ur comments

I have osteoporosis,and I am happy to say I have not had any broken bones! My bone density test show my 60 year old bones are like that of an 80+ year old women.However I am in pain every day, my knees,hips
,back and hands hurt the most. But my doctors say there is no pain with osteoporosis until you have a fracture or break. And X-rays have not shown much arthritis. How "much" do I need to have for them to explain the pain I have? Have any of you had pain without fracture or arthritis?
Has anyone had experience with this drug? In hindsight would you have taken it? Thank you.
Hi Sally added you to my team. I have horrible back pain,58. My dexa scan
next week will probably be a shocker.
