sgtmlt2, better to have an endocrinologist. But even then
At-2.5 I'm comfortable recommending Forteo or Tymlos and suggesting that you not take Reclast as the first medication. You may want to moderate your activities. Those of us who climb ladders, ride horses, climb mountains an ski are more likely to fracture because we sometimes fall.
Stay with Mayo Connect because there is wonderful information from people who have a broad range of experience. You really do have to question your doctors and all of us with our opinions and make the decision that sounds right to you.
Personally, I don't think that you can regain steady bone without the medications. Luckily there are others who
have different opinions and you can quiz us at every turn.
It's pretty interesting.
