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

How Do I Choose My Osteo Team? I Have Yet To Join A Team.
Read people's posts, and join a team with those you can relate to.
Osteopenia And Phenytoun/Dilantin
Earlier this week I was diagnosed with osteopenia in both my left hip and knee. I have read that phenytoin/Dilantin can cause osteoporosis. Have any of you had similar experience? What action(s) did you and your doctor take? Did you change your meds?
@A MyOsteoTeam Member,
I wish doctors could get their acts together! One says no arthritis, the next one says I have arthritis. 🤔
What Do You Do For Chronic Pain?
I had a right hip replacement, then developed a trochanteric avulsion. Pain every day. Thanks in advance.
@A MyOsteoTeam Member, i have the same ailments as u. I use comfrey cream for pain relief & some painkillers.😀
I Have Been Diagnosed With Osteoporosis At -4.7. It Is Very Bad In My Lower Back. I Am At High Risk For Fracture. I Am 62.
I have read about all of the medications, and they all sound terrible and dangerous. I cannot take AlgeCal because of calcium issues. I know I have to take something, but I am scared. Any suggestions or experiences are appreciated.
My Doctor Wants To Put Me On Prolia. I Am Currently On Fosamax. Heard Really Bad Things About Prolia. Very Confused.
There are so many bad side effects on all the reviews. I am scared to start it. Thank you for the information. 🙂
Oasteporosis And Calcium
I read a lot of people saying they are taking calcium and vit D3 for their osteo. Calcium and vit D3 have lately been proven not to work together. These papers are available online. Dr Berg in this video explains it. I hope this will help people who are confused with which treatments are good. https://youtu.be/A_oadHYkoV0
I take collegen every day in powdered form, vit D3 5000IU per day, vit K2 MK7 180mcgs per day along with magnesium, zink. 😃
I'm Waiting For An Appointment With Muscular Skeletal Department Anyone Else Had One? My Gp Thinks I Need A New Hip But Pain All Over.
Already had Right Hip total replacement - Slip N Fall - 6 mo to heal but doing fine as I had a great Kaiser Dr. and get up and down just fine now!
Connections/links Between Osteoporosis, Biophosphonates, And Macular Degeneration?
There are some research articles on sites such as PubMed et al that address possible links between osteoporosis and macular degeneration, as well as the taking of biophosphonates for osteoporosis and macular degeneration. If one is currently taking biophosphonates for osteoporosis and develops macular degeneration, should one discontinue taking the osteoporosis medicine? I've been taking osteoporosis biophosphonates for 22 months and was just recently diagnosed with moderate dry macular… read more
Please learn about the effects of biophosphomates. I ended up with severe osteoporosis, a parathyroid tumor and kidney stones from them. Learn about vitamin K2. Let my mistakes help you. A good place… read more
