@askjewels Thanks for responding. I was just diagnosed with AFIB and it is mild at this point. My biggest concern is what is the best option at this time given my kidney disease and the fact that I have one more year on anastrozole. I think I am not going to take any meds/infusions and work with my physical therapist to build muscle and hopefully improve my bone density. Did your doctor check your bone markers (CTX and P1NP)? Mine did and i have a 1,340 CTX and an 87 P1NP result.

@vegada Those numbers seem very skewed on the CTX side, which isn't good. But, the CTX test is very finicky. It is supposed to be done first thing in the morning, fasting. The number rises during the day.

Make sure your PT is knowledgeable about proper osteoporosis exercises. Many are not.
