Thanks for all the replays, I really appreciate. I didn't go to my doctor with the results, I waned to get informed before I accept to any treatment. I made my research and, really don't like what I see.
I started a strong diet based on calcium intake, like taking 4 spoons of organic whole sesame paste daily, plus calcium supplements (Bone Basics) plus Vit. D3. My diet is very very good there is no sugar since I was a kid (I don't like sugary foods), I am vegetarian (no vegan) but I eat eggs and fish, whole cereals and absolutely NOT processed foods. I run half marathons and at least, 30Km a week, I lift weights at the gym, Tai-Chi.....already for almost 30 years. I don't have pains in my back but when I read the results I started to feel my back, I guess psychological. I don't like the idea of having side effects to affect my life, I am a very healthy person.

@gemma, have you considered getting a second opinion from another physician? Your lifestyle, diet, and physical regimen make your diagnosis seem questionable to me. Have your recent lab tests included your Parathyroid function?

The diagnosis was from a bone density test. And no, I didn't get a<br>parathyroid test.I will consider it, its a good idea. Thanks.<br>
