@naomid I was saying maybe you could do 6 months- the most potent- or one year of a bone builder. Yes you have to "lock in gains" but my doc, as well as Dr. McCormick, say at that point we may be able to take a break from meds and monitor. That would be when I would switch to a more holistic approach. I was told one Reclast and then monitor. If tests show it is okay to take a break, great, and I would keep monitoring until meds are again needed. ps sent you a private message
