JUDE I HAVE OSTEOPOROSIS AND DID FOR A FEW YEARS BEFORE I GOT TM. I WAS PUT
ON MICALSON NASAL SPRAY. WHEN I HAD MY NEXT DENSITY BONE TEST IT SHOWED NOT MUCH
DIFFERENCE .I AM NOW TAKING BONIVA ONCE A MONTH. IT HELPS AND I TAKE 1200 MGS A
DAY OF CALCIUM WITH VITAMIN D AND ONCE A MONTH 50,000 UNITS OF JUST VITAMIN D. I
HAVE BLOOD TESTS TO MAKE SURE ALL MY LEVELS OR IN THE RIGHT RANGE.
STERIODS IS BAD FOR PEOPLE NO MATTER IF THEY HAVE TM OR NOT. IT DEPLETES
YOUR BONE MASS.
YOU MIGHT HAVE HAD OSTEOPOROSIS BUT JUST NOT KNOW ABOUT IT UNTIL YOU GOT
TM. THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED TO ME. THE DOCTORS SHOULD TELL YOU WHAT YOUR MEDS CAN
CAUSE, MINE DID AND WORKING IN A HOSPITAL I GOT ALOT OF INFO. I WAS ALSO A
DANCER AND I LOVED TO STRETCH AND GET STRETCHED.
I WAS NEVER TOLD I COULD NOT DO ANY STRETCHING. I DO STRETCH AND I LOVE TO
WORK OUT AND THE POOL TO ME IS THE BEST.
MAYBE IF YOU ASK YOUR DOCTORS ABOUT THE MEDS FOR OSTEOPOROSIS AND THE BLOOD
TESTS FOR YOUR CALCIUM AND VITAMIN D LEVEL THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN.
BEST WISHES PAM
