@soggybones Was he able to determine your underlying issues causing your osteoporosis? I have been following him for some and I have read both of his books.

Yes. We're pretty sure it is a combination of things that led to my osteoporosis: Menopause, not enough Vitamin D and protein in my diet and the SSRI medication I've been taking for nearly 30 years. We discussed HRT, but I have a high risk of breast cancer and I don't want to "feed" any cancer cells if I develop it. We both agreed that an anabolic would be best for me since my TBS is severely degraded and only the anabolics can help with that. I'll have to follow it up with a course of alondronate and possibly Evista. I'm also doing strength training and I'm making sure I'm getting enough protein, Vitamin D and calcium. I'm hoping I can improve my bones or at least stop them from getting worse!
