Jeff have you had issues with osteoporosis because of ADT and if so what treatment do you prefer. My oncologist wants me to have a Reclast infusion same time as my next Eligard shot. Thanks,Chuck.

I’ve had some real serious osteoporosis problems with my thumb my shoulder, both knees and both hips.
Going to the gym regularly has enabled me to avoid replacing one hip and my shoulder is considerably better from doing it. My other hip had such serious problems. I had to replace it as well as both knees, one about six years ago and one a year and a half ago.
Nobody in my family has had as many problems with osteoporosis as I’ve had.
I don’t know if I can place the blame on ADT, but I started at nine years ago.
