It might be awhile for you to get the book from the library, It is such a great resource it will be worth buying it and taking your time to educate yourself. Those of us that have been on this site for awhile have read it and it really goes into detail about everything you would want to know about Osteoporosis and the treatments available. I was also diagnosed young ( age 50). I have not had any fractures ( thankfully) and wish I had taken the time to educate myself way back than ( I am 62 now). My mom also had Osteoporosis and passed away after her second hip fracture. This is a life long condition and you need to find the right Physician who will listen to your concerns, order the correct lab tests and support you.
