@fotula- Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I'm with you, I can't take any bone strengthening meds. Exercise, weight bearing exercises, walking will help. You also should take Calcium. There are some very good ones that are liquid calcium too. Have you had your vitamin D tested? When I did, I needed 3000mg extra.

I have tried 3 different types of calcium supplements since I had my bone density test and was diagnosed with osteopenea. All of the supplements have made me naseous, gassy, constipated and basically miserable, regardless of when I take them. the pharmacist suggested AlgaCal because it is plant based. Does any one have any first hand experience with that product? all I do all day long is belch and fart, unbelievable. DD
