Discussion About Tomatoes. Seems Several People R Saying Tomatoes Have No Good Nutrition For Osteoporosis Patients.
Well, I care to defer. I love tomatoes & will continue eating & enjoying them whenever I can. I started researching & here is the first thing I found. Please read 2 attached pages.
Thanks. London
@A MyOsteoTeam Member hello dear friend and I love the little Bellini oval Italian tomatoes low in acid and high in Vitamin c and I eat a small box of them every week mostly with my rice thins with… read more
Hello! Couldn't Find Anything In Search But Anyone Here That *isn't* Taking Any Meds And Using Calcium Supplements Etc, Exercise To Improve?
If so, have you:
□ gotten better
□ stayed the same
□ gotten worse
Personally I take 70mg alendronate tablet 1x a week for the last year. My worse t-score is -3.3 in one of my vertebrae.
Thank you!
Calcium Citrate is more easily absorbed by bones and taking K2 with calcium will direct it to bones, not the heart. I have stopped taking Alendronate after 2 1/2 yrs because of the potential… read more
Has Someone In The Medical Field Acted Like Your Diagnosis Of Osteoporosis Is NOT A Big Deal?
In March 2020 I had a mental health issue & was in the hospital 2 weeks. When out I had a wellness (mental health) councilor from a senior center for about 8 months. We had sessions on phone once a week for an hour. It helped. Now about a month after osteoporosis diagnosis while I was scared to death, very concerned about what that meant, what would happen to my body, Dr told me nothing - did he know anything? I wasn't sleeping well, my blood pressure was up. I called that councilor & told her… read more
Do you take Ad-Cal?? (Vitamin D plus Calcium). Available on prescription from GP, I take 4 daily. Helps slow down bone density/deterioration. Can be easily bought in supermarkets etc.
What Dr. To Treat Osteoporosis
I have seen in many posts going to an endocrinologist. Is this to treat osteoporosis? My internist is treating me now. Should I be seeing a endocrinologist for my osteoporosis? I also have Hashimotos disease. My thyroid is nothing more than fibrous tissue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.😊
I agree, although I am new to all of this, I feel for all who are dealing with Osteoporosis on top of everything else we all deal with. I also take calcium and D. Thank you for your help. Stay well 😀
Is There Any Treatment Or Help I Can Get To Release The Nerve
I have degenerative osteoarthritis of my Lower spine which has caused sciatica to my right leg , the pain is unbearable especially in the mornings, I’ve tried stretches and am quite active but it seems that after I relax the pain gets worse , it’s been going on for 5 months now sometimes it wakes me up during the night
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
Medication That Does Not Cause Osteonecrosis Of The Jaw
I have osteopenia of more than 10 years duration. My MD would like me to take Fosamax. I have bad teeth--I receive regular dental care and floss and brush with prescription strength fluoride toothpaste like I'm supposed to, but I have numerous crowns/fillings, 4 implants, I've had several root canals and broken teeth. I'm wondering what besides Prolia or biphosphanates I could take. I am afraid of osteonecrosis of the jaw--I'm also afraid of breaking a hip. I take calcium and Vit D supplements… read more

Do You Follow A Specific Diet To Help With Osteoporosis?
It’s always good to keep active with exercise to keep yourself as strong as possible. Kneading bread will definitely help… and also lifting dumbbells or small hand weights

Prolia DISASTER
I'd been on Prolia a few years. Wasn't getting better but at least not getting worse
Then doctor retired and new doctor couldn't see me right away
I said I was supposed to get this shot every six months but they said I had to wait for the new doctor.
WEEKS after she told me this, THREE VERTEBRAE FRACTURED!
I have been in pain every single day ever since!
I got the shot however, and now I still have to be on Prolia!
Here is what I have as a result, IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE FRACTURES… read more
Alendronate Or Alendronic Acid
It’s improved my bone density somewhat and the Endocrinologist at the Sunshine Coast University Hospital was pleased that my Lumbar spine is now Osteopinea, wrists and hips are not so good.
I am concerned about the stomach bloating and constipation of my bowel.
My question is does Aledronic Acid +Caliciferol with Vitamin D (Fonat Plus) cause gum ulceration and pain as this is an ongoing problem. Could it be the Acid component?
@A MyOsteoTeam Member yes you are correct! I try to keep positive and not to talk about my pain.
However it’s lovely to belong to a group like this where we can get some comfort from Ione another… read more
