Thank you so much , Callalloo, for your thoughtful reply. I made an appointment with a rheumatologist, but there are no openings for a month. I will try to do some weight bearing exercises until then. I was always very active until Dec., when I had to retire due to chronic lung issues. I'm used to taking all kinds of meds, but Fosamax was the most worrisome. I really appreciate your advice. This is such a great source of information. Thanks to everyone.

This forum really is helpful because there are so many experiences represented. Glad that it's helpful for you. I have osteopenia and devoutly hope to avoid osteoporosis so read the posts here to stay current about which drugs are being used so I can read the peer-reviewed studies about them in case I end up needing to plan ahead. And to read about what others are doing, in addition to drugs, to stop or even reverse osteoporosis.
