Vibration plate?
I’m heading toward 60 and was diagnosed with
Osteopenia
3 years ago. Former collegiate soccer player, and I workout about 6 days a week. Recently went through menopause and my numbers dropped a bit.

Will Alendronic Acid affect my RLS?
I have
Osteopenia
and have been advised to start taking Alendronic Acid to prevent me developing Osteoporosis but am worried it might make my RLS worse. I take Requip and seem to have it under control.

osteoporosis or osteoarthritis
My hip went from osteoporosis to
osteopenia
, so that my bone density got so much worse in my spine requires more investigation I think. Can anyone speak to the likelihood of osteoarthritis making my DEXA score inaccurate? Thank you!

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!

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!

Questions about taking Alendronate (Fosomax) and hydroxyeurea
After having a physical and a bone scan my gp just recommended taking alendronate for
osteopenia
. I walk 3 miles a day and work out. I have concerns about doing this especially with taking hydroxy. I have a friend whose femur fractured after using Fosomax.

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

high cholesterol taking D3
hi, I suffer from Hashimotos, Sjögren’s and whatever
osteopenia
means. I’m now worried as to avoid taking Alendronic acid for
osteopenia
I’ve been taking D3+K2 and magnesium.

Hormone replacement therapy for bone strength
I have been taking Activelle for the past ten years and am still in
osteopenia
and my scores have improved. I have read that use of HRT can cause breast cancer. My GP said to continue with the HRT. Any thoughts?

Osteoporosis, osteopenia and running
Last time I was at the doctors I asked for a follow up scan, and the results show that I've improved as it's now
osteopenia
. The only lifestyle changes I've made are that I no longer work in an office and, of course, running. I doubt that the former would do much for my bones.

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.

PMR seems to have returned
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.

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.

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.
