Osteoporosis has no symptoms. I felt fine and was doing sword tai chi classes when I fractured three vertebrae (not in the class, just one unwise movement at home).

If your DEXA score is low (and FRAX score is high) I hope you can get a prescription and authorization for a bone builder like Forteo, Tymlos or Evenity. Primary care doctors often prescribe Fosamax or Prolia. It can help to see an endocrinologist.

Forum posts tend to be negative because people with bad experiences tend to post more. Tymlos literally saved my life and I have also done some Evenity and Reclast. You may need less treatment than I do with several fractures, but wishing you good luck in starting!
