What Is The Difference Between Type 1 Osteoporosis And Type 2 ? My Doctor Didn't Tell Me About Different Typs

Corby, UK

I was diagnosed and sent on my way with painkillers which don't help much at all and no further information.

I just have Osteoporosis. I don’t take any painkillers. I have an injection everyday of forteo and my bone density test a year ago showed I was getting good bone back. You can only be on it two years so I will be off it in May

I had no side effects during my 2 years of fortes and good density gains.

The docs can't find a painkiller for me as i have really bad reactions to all they have tried. I'm on morphine now and only tend to take it if I'm going to be out, Ibruprofen suits me but I only have 1 working kidney and my doc doesn't want me to take them,

I also have never been told about different types of osteoporosis.

Lynette, I have wondered about the same thing. I will try to remember to ask my doctor, but I’ve won’t see her until May. Since your pain meds aren’t working, maybe you should call/text/ email your doctor.
