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.

My Story
She did a bone density test: findings were osteoporosis in my neck, and
osteopenia
in my spine, hips normal. She wants me to take anti-osteoporosis drugs (which I do not intend to do at this point, after researching) and wants me off the prednisone.

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.

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.

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?

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.

33% radius t score 4.5
I was wondering why only one of the t scores shows osteoporosis, and the others
osteopenia
? Can what happened to his left forearm years ago be the culprit? Thank you so very much

vitamin advice
I was diagnosed with
osteopenia
following a DEXA scan. I don’t want to take Alendronic acid and my GP agreed with me taking vitamin D3 + K2 mk7 and magnesium glycinate and to have a further DEXA scan in three years. I’ve also added calcium.

adrenal insufficiency/prednsiolone
I feel like garbage on daily Pred and can't wait to fully come off it as it's caused
osteopenia
too.

New to the group
At present, I have
osteopenia
and take calcium pills and Vit. D. I was diagnosed recently, after taking calcium for many years, so that's concerning. I can't stand milk or yogurt, but I eat cheese, and try to have vegetables high in calcium.
