It came as no surprise to me today that my most recent bone density test showed that I had osteoporosis because two years ago I had osteopenia. Mostly this is due to my breast cancer meds which are anti-estrogen and hard on the bones. My weight loss hasn't helped either.

Has anyone gone on Boniva, Fosomax or Actenol? And if so, are the pills hard to tolerate with the band? I don't have very tight restriction and haven't had any problems with pills.

I just joined a gym and started weight bearing exercises to add to my aerobic exercising. Hope that will help.

Thanks.

I have osteopenia, as well. I am going this September for another bone scan. Hoping it has not progressed but will be no surprise to me if it has due to my diet over the past year.
