Isn't It Odd That Almost All The Doctors Are Ready To Handout Prescription Medications For Anything That Is Wrong With Us?
Isn't it odd that almost all the doctors are ready to handout prescription medications for anything that is wrong with us, INSTEAD of telling us that we must eat better and get the proper exercise or physical therapy to help our conditions??? I wish we had good and caring doctors who followed the oath they made, when they became a doctor.
so true Pam!
Pain And Osteoporosis
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?
I’ve heard others on this board saying there’s no pain w osteoporosis. I call bullshit on that!! My primary doc referred me to an endocrinologist, after my fracture incident. My bone scans identified… read more

I’ve had sciatica. The only thing that helped was steroids.It literally took the pain away, the only thing is, you can’t stay on them
What Type Of Doctor Do You Go To For Osteoporosis? (after Diagnosed)
I was diagnosed via a Dexascan by my GYN. She has since retired, and I would prefer someone who is trained in osteoporosis.
I think there was one great doctor for Osteoporosis, Dr. Darah Morgan. She retired. Everybody else goes by what the pharmaceutical salespeople are pushing. I do have a friend from India who is an MD… read more
Has Anyone Taken Prolia? If So Did You Experience Any Side Affects?
I may need to reconsider if the Bone Maximizer doesn’t show improvement.
Is Alendronate Any Good For Severe Osteoporosis
Thanku sondra. I'll look into that. Good luck
Does Anyone Have Weight Gain With Osteoporosis
Yes, I wondered why I was losing weight. Cannot afford that.
Dexa Scan Only Does The Lumbar Region
I’ve heard that dexa scan only measures density of lumbar region so you can’t know if you have it further up your spine. It’s always my upper back I have pain in.
Thanks for the link I'm going to try to get my new Dr to read it, if doesn't know. I think it was that book title I put into Amazon ,,,& came up with price $122 or something. When have a chance will… read more
