I cannot stop taking estrogen suppressants for the rest of my life or my breast cancer may recur. It was moderately aggressive and traveled to a lymph node. I give all the credit for my improved bone density to my working the Better Bones Program (not perfectly), but to the best of my ability. I eagerly anticipate my 2024 scan as I anticipate even better scores, the longer I work the Program. I will also try to get an Echolight scan in the meantime, when they become available. Echolight scans are ultrasounds that measure overall bone quality: its strength and its density. Being a part of Dr. Brown's community will ensure that I stay up to date on when Echolight becomes available.
In Covid I was handed an osteoporosis & no longer osteopenia diagnosis. The doctor who didn’t even see me, since we were in Covid, recommended an IV drip at a hospital which I gratefully did do…a year later my osteoporosis had indeed improved somewhat…I now lift weights (not heavy) and try to posture correct.
