Osteoporosis and lower back pain

Posted by kdickerson @kdickerson, Dec 23, 2024

Hi everyone and thank you for taking time to read my post. I am 58 and healthy- retired teacher and now teach 3 days Reading Intervention. Here is my issue- I have severe osteoporosis and, to be honest, I’m scared. My hips are mild to moderate but my spine is in the range 3.2 to 3.4. I love my doctor and trust him completely. His plan is to start Evenity then Prolia. Can someone share experience with pain? My lower back hurts off and on all day but worse in the mornings. Thank you all so much.

Yes, I've tried the googling and have discovered there is quite a variety. I'll check out the Viscosoft, I believe I ran across it online. These toppers all seem to be vacuum packed. Did yours arrive that way and did you have any difficulty with it filling out properly?

Thanks again.

No problems. It looks a little squished and small when initially laid out, but it fills up and out to normal size in an afternoon or more. Also no odor that I found.
