I just went to Mayo for a broken tibia because of osteoporosis. I am taking monthly infusions. I am in a wheelchair, but I am going to a physical therapy which has a special machine called a alterG treadmill. It lets you walk with only 10 percent of your weight. I also am going to swimming pool to do exercises that the physical therapist gave me.

I am so sorry for how you feel. It is so difficult with pain. Hope your pain gets better!

Thanks. I will look into that treadmill.
