Who'd of thunk it?
I had tested as having
osteopenia
in 2013 and been put on Prolia. This time, the scan showed no issues with bone density at all. I was very surprised, as was the staff. They also ordered a CT / Pet scan with NaF (sodium fluoride).

HYPERPARATHYROID
Osteoporosis and
Osteopenia
. Bones hurt; typically it's bones in the legs and arms but can be most bones. Don't sleep like you used to. Wake up in middle of night. Trouble getting to sleep. Tired during the day and frequently feel like you want a nap (but naps don't help).

PBC and Calcium needs.
I am have
osteopenia
and would like to slow down the bone loss. I take 2,000mg of Vit D and looking for a palatable calcium citrate. I can't abide the chalky tasting chewable. Does any one know of a form of calcium that tastes good. It would be nice some one knew of a gummy vitamin.

New osteopenia diagnosis
I have some autoimmune issues but have just found out via a DEXA pelvic scan that I have
osteopenia
(I'm 46). Because I started on bioidentical HRT recently, the hospital said to wait & see if those had any effects & to re-scan in 3 years. Should I follow this diagnosis up with my GP?

Have you got osteopenia?
Does this mean my
osteopenia
will not get any worse, or may even reverse? Or am I stuck with it. O, I'm not going to take bisphosphonates as they appear to increase the risk of fractures. http://www.wellnessresources.com/newsroom.php/health/articles/bone_loss_caused_by_thyroid_meds_and_other_drugs/

Type of calcium
DEXA last month showed
osteopenia
, about 13% loss. Rheumy does not want to do anything at this time. But I am wondering which type of calcium is best to use. I have been using the calcium carbonate. Thanks in advance. Helen

HRT
My dexa scan revealed
osteopenia
and being an athlete/runner my whole life just doesn't add up so I also wonder if HRT can help prevent osteoporosis along with supplemental vitamin D and calcium? If HRT, then which one? Do those of you on HRT take a combination of estogen and progesterone?

Diagnostic Testing for Osteoporosis
I've no idea how many people with OP or
osteopenia
have an underlying cause that can be identified and rectified, thus forestalling expensive fractures, loss of independence etc. In my case, I've 2 siblings with early-onset osteoporosis, and I've recently sustained a fracture.
