I don't know your scores but if you are just over the line of -2.5, I think you are doing the right thing. Along with calcium, D, K2 I would add making sure your balance is good. I did Tai Chi for that. Once on Prolia, you have to stay on meds. I do believe docs start meds prematurely in many cases. Keith McCormick's book The Whole Body Approach to Osteoporosis may be helpful. I am on meds now but stayed off for 14 years after my diagnosis.

@windyshores This is helpful as my primary was suggesting Prolia since there had been more bone loss. Fosamax rendered me nonfunctional. My numbers aren't over that mark. There are times when that ounce of prevention can destroy completely quality of life.
I have started to do more wholistic things to this osteoporosis issue. Cardiovascular provided me with some "wholesome" input on different things. i do appreciate a well rounded NP. Things in the cardio arena showing no change. Thanks again as I am still learnimg.
