Lansoprazole and prednisolone
He also prescribed alendrolic acid, but advised me to get loose teeth sorted first (I already had
osteopenia
due to an early change in my late 30s/early 40s).

New Here
Good morning, I am newly diagnosed with
Osteopenia
and my mother has full blown Osteoporosis. I am working on eating right and doing weight bearing exercises to help my own bones, but Mom has had 4 spinal fractures (now healed) and is struggling with pain every day.

What Now Pt 2
Dexa revealed
Osteopenia
. Hip and Spine is -1.5 and femoral neck is -2.3 (flirting with osteoporosis). I'm asking myself Why The F@@k have I been destroying my body with a drug ( XGEVA) that was supposed to prevent this? Is it time for a vacation from ADT, or time for a new Oncologist, or both?

Mental function disappearing
Before Xmas I've been diagnosed with
Osteopenia
. I'm getting concerned about being one of the drivers on a return trip to France in a couple of weeks as my mind feels unreliable.

Stay or Go
3-1/2 years of ADT +Zytiga, Prednisone, and Xgeva and I've developed
Osteopenia
, and near Osteoporosis (-2.3) in femoral neck, (-1.5 spine and hip) and fractured T11 vertebra . My thoughts are that this is directly related to the ADT.

Balancing prednisolone/methotrexate/osteopenia/pmr and myasthenia gravis
I’ve had 3 yearly Dexa scans which have been fine until the last one a month ago which showed
osteopenia
. I’ve been on pred since 2009 and went onto mtx a year ago at 15mg per week and got to 5mg pred daily.

osteopenia
Hi recently diagnosed with
osteopenia
Has anyone else got this condition under control and managed to keep it from progressing to osteoporosis through exercise and diet?

Second Opinion?
After the X-rays revealed the fracture, my GP ordered a dexa scan, where
Osteopenia
was discovered, as well as being right on the cusp of osteoporosis , I informed my Oncology Team, they determined(without images, only a written report) the fracture was "Osteoporotic", and NOT cancer related.

fracture
My doctor told me I just had
osteopenia
and disregarded my concerns. My rheumatologist ordered a bone density scan a week ago and I have osteoporosis. I also have a compression fracture in spine. I’m looking for hope about being active and excising with spinal fracture.

A Different View on Bone Protection
Are used as treatments for
osteopenia
/osteoporosis as shown on a DEXA scan. But they also have been shown to reduce those adverse “skeletal related events” in APC.

repeat fractures
She said no that the X-rays and MRI indicated I just had
osteopenia
which is normal for my age. Fast forward a year later to my appt with my rheumatologist. He suggested I get my first bone density scan and some X-rays take.

Between a rock and a hard place :-(
(T scores = total spine -2.4, hip score -1.2, femoral neck-1.3) I was told I was within the
osteopenia
range and given D3 for ongoing bone protection. I was diagnosed in April 2021 with ‘post COVID PMR’ and put on 15mg Prednisolone.
