I am curious to see what area of practice a doctor should be in…to be knowledgeable with osteoporosis?
Right now I feel like I am an experiment for them!!!

Is there such a thing as an osteoporosis doctor? I don't think so. Doctors treat the best they know how but it's up to us to make the right decision . My bone Dr. is concerned about his wife who has osteopenia and he is concerned about what to do for her. Having cancer I have been on D and iron for years and other vitamins and feel pretty good. My knees are shot but keep going and I have very high hopes that the ALgaeCal I choose to take is going to help me like it has for my niece.

That is encouraging…I am doing the calcium and high dose of D…plus a multivitamin…along with the alendronate. I go in for tests in a month…hopefully that will tell us something…😊
Keep up the good work…I feel like I am an old person talking about the meds I am on….oh wait….I am!

Have yet to speak to a Dr. that is familiar with osteoporosis and has an idea how to treat except for the regular run of the mill drugs with the side effects.
