Do not bend or twist, get nutritional help, make sure you are lifting light weights daily or every other day, keep active, walking is good, read about keeping your bones stable, take tai chi. Read about depression, get a life coach or counselor to talk to weekly, take pt to work on weight lifting and balance so you won't fall, put bars in your bathroom tub or shower area. Make sure your glasses are correct. Walk with walking sticks if hiking. Drink plenty of filtered water, do not eat processed foods, check your calcium level. Join a book club or two! Keep active socially so you will be distracted from your worries! Naomi
