    I'm wondering why I haven't been given any exercise programmes to do by the hospital.. It's over a year since I had two compression fractures (and when an earlier third was discovered). Before the fractures I practiced yoga most days at home. Every time I mentioned exercise post these fractures, I got a shrug of the shoulders and a dismissive look. It's been a nightmare year frankly. All the pain I've gone through and no help whatsoever. I'll be following these exercises now - definitely. I can't wait to start

    This talk is very bias against REMS. The speaker SHOULD HAVE said that the DXA scanner can ALSO HAVE all the same issues. Poorly trained technician, poor positioning of the patient, false reassurances in the presence of osteoarthritis. DXA is far from perfect. The literature proves that. REMS results are NOT dependant on the technician, patient positioning or osteoarthritis or surgical hardware.

    Subclinical hyperthyroidism or hyperthyroidism cause low bone density. I would like to warn anybody who is not gaining weight to get thyroid test. Check TSH levels and if suppressed get a thyroid ultrasound. My son is 22, Never puts on weight and other symptoms. I went private for a dexa sxan and he has osteoporosis at 22, Also low Testosterone. No Dr would of thought to get him a dexa scan. Its only because i have subclinical hyperthyroidism and diagnosed osteopenia at 36, That i got my sons bone density checked.

    More pharma BS, no advice on diet exercise just drugs drugs drugs. Check out the COMB study for an alternative to using dangerous drugs. "According to the results, this combined micronutrient supplementation regimen appears to be at least as effective as bisphosphonates or strontium ranelate in raising BMD levels in hip, spine, and femoral neck sites. No fractures occurred in the group taking the micronutrient protocol."

    I've had a cough for 6 weeks. Xray clear. But last night I coughed so hard I felt something pop round the back of my ribs. The pain was so bad. I went into a cold sweat and almost passed out. Doctors at A&E had no idea what I'd done, but now I'm scared to cough. Being an asthmatic I need cough to clear phlegm so I'm going to see if these techniques help.

    Took Alendronic Acid as was told 14 years ago if I didn’t I would break a hip and die 😳. Horrible stuff caused me aches and pains but was told to persevere. Broke both wrists and a bone in my foot whilst taking drugs having never broken a bone before except in the trauma accident which caused them to put me on the drugs in the first place. Dexa scans showed an improvement in my bone density but as I later found out not bone strength which is the most important thing. Wish I had never taken drugs. Have been off them for around 7 years but my dentist is still very careful should there ever be a need for extraction. She has seen evidence of osteonecrosis not good and not as rare as the drug company would have you believe. I am not eligible for any further dexa scans as I have refused any further treatment. I have had a REMS scan which shows since I have been off the drugs and following my own regime my bone density and more importantly strength has improved.
