@nannygoat5 I love your idea of a positive post!!! I've posted on other threads, but I was diagnosed 2 years ago, at 58. I'm active & thought I was healthy, so was shocked. My diagnosis kick-started a strength training & Pilates exercise program that I love. After a few months of Alendronate (I couldn't take it but had prior reflux issues & know lots of people, including my 84 yr old mom who take it with no problem!), I found a great NP at an Osteoporosis Clinic at a local teaching hospital who listens & presents options. She put me on Tymlos, which I've been on for 18 months with few side effects. I had a Dexa scan last week and I'm now in the Osteopenia range in my spine!!! My hips were already Osteopenia. I'm finishing this last month of Tymlos & then will get a Reclast injection. One of my friends in my workout today said she is about to get her 2nd Reclast injection, and had absolutely no side effects from her initial one.

Also thanks for the info about @gotbuffbones on Instagram - had never heard of her!
