And last week I found I have 2 ulcers.
My question is the Omeprazole at 40mg twice per day can hurt my bones even further. Any advice?

I was on proton pump inhibitors for over 10 years. Now I have osteopenia. It just pisses me off. I wasn't aware of this side effect. Now that I know, I tell everyone, no PPIs.

Did U Have Pain In Area, Before Leg Bone Break?

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Florida USA

I'm worrying about some recent sharp pains in leg, or knee as walking or moving on steps. I know some leg breaks due to accidents/falls. As I read someone broke a bone in leg, I'm picturing it happened all of a sudden as if the bone crumbled/collapsed? And was there any warning pain in day/s before? Or no, not happening like that? Thanks.
