Help - Osteoporosis and cancer
I also have
osteopenia
in the dual femur region. I will try to identify a consultant to speak to but in the interim as I do vigorous yoga, I’m now panicked that in keeping me healthy to fight cancer, I may be risking fracturing my spine!

e2 patch
well I finally got to meet with y Oncologist last week regarding use of estradiol (e2) patch to battle against osteoporosis /
osteopenia
because the 90 day Xgeva dosing (down from every 28 daysx 2 years) doesn't seem to be doing much.

I still take Adcal-D3 for my bones because of osteoporosis/
osteopenia
but GP is talking of extra protection for my bones. Is it still Alendronic acid ? Thanks.

Disappointing news
I was delighted when a further Dexa indicated improvement and Osteoporosis was now
osteopenia
. However, a recent Dexa has shown I have Osteoporosis again this time in my hip. I was surprised in view of my positive history and feel quite deflated!

New treatment guidelines
Just been reading the new US guidelines for osteoporosis/
osteopenia
. I am in the Uk so probably different here. But what struck me was this extract "For postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, you should use a bisphosphonate as first line treatment to reduce the risk for future fractures.

Taking collagen
I have been diagnosed with
osteopenia
and am taking Risedronate. I am also taking Anastrozole after having a mastectomy . I take vitD and K , my diet is good and I walk every day. Just wondering if there’s anything else I can do to improve my bone health. Thanks.

Endo appointment, T3 results at last and hyperparathyroidism possible
I have
osteopenia
but she said it was in line with someone of my age but, of course, I'd rather not have it and do something to reduce it!

Update on Dexa scan
Thankfully I haven't got osteoporosis but as a lot of you suggested I have
osteopenia
. I have been prescribed alandronic acid as some of you are.

Decapeptyl and bone thinning
I had this for two years and it was then stopped as my DEXA showed significant
osteopenia
(5th centile for pelvis). I started on the combined pill which then caused my symptoms of bleeding and pain to return. As the Decapeptyl hugely improved my QOL, I was restarted back on this after 8 months off.

Last dexa was good news
I would have been happy if it stayed the same, so really thrilled that my spine is now 1.2, a 7.3 increase and my left femoral neck is -2.4 a 5.3 increase I know most broken bones are people with
osteopenia
and I know it's something I'll have to watch my whole life, but I am very proud of myself and

Referrals??
(Spinal Fracture,
Osteopenia
, Fatigue, bone, joint and and muscle pain as well as general sick feeling. I have discussed on two occasions with my MO, and he is NOT receptive to e2 patch at all. He claims the cardio risks are still present like with oral estrogen.

Update: The Squeaky Wheel (heard fr Neuro)
I do have
osteopenia
, but of course can't take AA. I do take 4000 D3 and also K2. CRP was 1.1. I suggested that the higher Pred might have lowered it. He does not "think" that cranial GCA is evident (although he sounded kind of unsure; out of his "wheelhouse", but is not neurological?).

Newly Diagnosed
I was diagnosed with
Osteopenia
in July of 2018. I was told to continue with Vitamin D and Calcium daily. It did absolutely nothing. After doing some research, and with the numbers I had, I should have definitely been scanned again before 3 years/3 months later.

E2 Patch
In that time I've developed
osteopenia
, and have suffered an "Osteoporotic" compression fracture to the t11 vertebra, even though I've been receiving XGEVA, and taking Calcium Citrate, D3, and Multi vitamins as directed.

Clinical trials
That said, I am moderately active (within the bounds set by my newly diagnosed
osteopenia
, and chemo-related fatigue), my resting pulse rate is great (63), and my blood pressure is textbook good and always has been.

Stopping Omeprazole
I was told by my GP to come off omeprozole because I now have
osteopenia
and also i've been taking 20mg every morning for over 10 years. I reduced it to 10mg over the past 2 weeks and now stopped it completely on Sunday. I understand there is a "rebound effect" for a few weeks.
