Feel with you! I had similar experience in 2022 too. For many reasons I want to avoid medicines. For 1/2 year I have been adding oills for both Strontium and L-Reuteri to my healthy diet with a lot of Calcium. This in addition to K2 and D-vit. I feel very much better! But new scanning will first be in 2-3 years. Has anybody had experience with this diet-addings?

Why do you have to wait 2-3 years for another scan? Just my opinion, I would think a year is good to see if there is improvement. Two to three years sounds late in the process if it’s getting worse or staying the same.
Best to you!

My rheumatologist didn’t want me taking Stronium. She said it was like putting shellac on the surface of the bone, didn’t really help with the strength. I’ve also read where it can skew the DEXA readings. Like you, I want to try to improve my bone health without taking meds. In fact, my dentist very empathetically told me not to take them. I take a LOT of supplements because, even though I eat healthy, it’s a restrictive diet due to me having Sjogerns syndrome. I eat mostly meat, vegetables and fruit. I’m seeing a functional medicine Dr for help and advice.
