@catken0701 you have had to endure so much already, I’m sorry you’ve had to go through all this.
Has any doctor given you a reason why you break bones so easily? And how about the weight gain? That’s quite a bit in a short period of time.
Still sounds immune system related, maybe thyroid or parathyroid, and having Covid may well have triggered an immune response that wasn’t intended.
Have you taken any meds other than the cortisone for any of your prior issues?
Hopefully the rheumatologist you see will be able to figure this out.
Autoimmune issues are very complex, I know, it’s all about controlling the inflammation, easier said than done sometimes.

@sondrachristo1 they said it was bc i was lactose intolerant for most of my younger years and my calcium and vit d is very low. Always has been. I also have alpha gal syndrome so I cant eat red meat. I was bitten by a lone star tick 10 years ago now. So my iron is always low as well as my protein. Then one day my sugar started to spike all the time and they said I was pre diabetic they said hormone changes at my age can do this. They did a hormone panel and everything came back of that of basically a 20 something year old. I drastically changed my diet and started working out daily. Being in a boot cast for part of every year probably didnt help the Weight gain either. Other then broken bones I never went to the doctors.
