Anastrozole and osteoporosis

Worked out with a trainer 2000—2011. Started HRT in 2003. Diagnosed with osteoporosis in 2005. Broke two bones in my feet on a leg press in the gym in 2005.

In 2021, I was diagnosed with ER+ BC. Had lumpectomy, radiation, and lympnodectomy and started anastrozole in 2021. Since 2021, I’ve had a compression fracture in my spine, a decompression fracture in my spine, a broken rib getting a breast MRI, and a broken humerus in two places from a fall this year. My shoulder still hurts, and I am unable to drive my car. My hair is thinning; my nails are terrible with chipping and breaking. In 2021, I had a knee replacement and in 2023, I had a hip replacement. I recently started collagen peptides one and MSM. I passed on bone building shots. I also take strontium citrate. I wish you the best with your decision.

Oh, that’s just horrible! I hope the Reclast infusions I’ve been getting yearly will protect me from a fracture if I decide to take anastrozole. .
