Anyone progress from osteoporosis to osteopenia?
Being new to this site, I’m enjoying all the info out there on your experiences with osteoporosis. Has anyone been diagnosed with osteoporosis and been able to gain bone density to the point of osteopenia, or better. I’m 65, have osteoporosis, and each bone density it gets worse. I’ll admit I need to step up with exercise, and make changes to diet. But would love to hear from anyone who has positive changes and specifically what you did to achieve them. Thank you!

This is an interesting site that has information about industry payments. It also has the link to the Open Payments Portal, where you can see if your doctor has been receiving payments.

Unfortunately we cannot prescribe for ourselves and need doctors, PA's and nurse practitioners. There are some good ones. It can take time to find them and when I find them, I stay long term.
