You will need to do regular bone density scans, or iv treatments for your bones. It is the silent side effect that once you notice it, its too late. Be your own advocate on this one. Don't wait for your dr. to suggest it.

@purehope2022 Thank you. My doctor has made sure I get regular bone density tests for the past 20 years or longer. They always remind me. I had breast cancer in 2001 and was on Tamoxifen, which actually increased my bone density. Isn't that weird?!
