I refuse osteoporosis meds. Calcium citrate doesn't seem to bother me but I take 500mg. and make up rest with diet. Vitamin D and collegan peptides daily. My dexa is also stable but my Dr. scares me. He said if I break a hip I'll be dead within a year. I'm very sensitive to med side effects and am refusing reclast infusions. I'm afraid of drug interactions since I already receive Entyvio infusions for ulcerative colitis. Do you know of any other natural steps to better bone health? I have bad feet but walk 30 minutes a day. Thanks.

I suggest exercising. I follow Dr.Lisa Moore at Brickhouse Bones on face book. She also has a you tube site with all exercises from beginners to experienced. I love it. I also work with a personal trainer.

We are following the exact same routine. I had a DEXA scan recently which showed improvement from a year ago with no drugs. I had three different doctors say the exact same words to me…I recommend you take an osteoporosis drug because “you could have a fracture just by sitting down too hard on the toilet.” I found that quite bizarre and wondered if those were the words recommended by the pharmaceutical salesperson in this area.
