I had a bone density test two weeks ago and now have an appointment with an endocrinologist because of additional bone loss. I've done some research and read on WebMD of the possibility that osteo can be caused by anti seizure meds. I haven't found any info on Neurontin/gabapenten regarding osteo.
I have been taking osteo meds since age 48 when a bone density test came back abnormal. A tests at 50 showed no additional loss and at 52 I had improvement. TM and menopause happened simultaneously at age 53, my density test at 54 showed no change. Now, at age 56 the numbers are dropping.
I know menopause can be the culprit, but do any of you know anything about anti seizure meds and bone loss? What can the endocrinologist help with (besides telling me to stop caffeine)?
