Hi @smittysmith2,
You're welcome.
Based on the interview, those who participate in Osteostrong must be carefully screened to determine if the program is suitable for them.
Reading about all your wife's fractures, I was wondering if she has something more going on than osteoporosis, like a genetic disorder, but that would probably be a lifelong condition with bones breaking easily since childhood.
I wish you both the best and hope you find a physician who can help.

Thanks! There’s no family history. After her second fracture, she went to every specialist she could think of to see why this was happening. She didn’t go to anyone specializing in genetics. I don’t know if we have anyone here in Jackson, MS that does that. I’m going to suggest that she try to find one.

When I joined Osteostrong there was no careful screening. I wonder if you are saying you should have you physician screen you prior?

There was no careful screening of any kind when I went for the free session. I emphasized that I was 8 months post op total knee replacement and was concerned about the machines doing harm and I was assured it would not be a problem. I knew immediately after the session that I hurt the knee and I'm lucky in that the hardware that was put in my knee is good but the likelihood is that I tore muscles and ligaments because the knee was not totally healed yet. I can see why they insist you sign a waiver of liability before even trying their machines. I would not recommend them to anyone after my experience. And the cost of it is ridiculous....$207.00 for a 10 minute weekly session. I want to add that 2 ½ months after Osteostrong, my knee still is bothering me.
