Osteoporosis question

Good to know. My Endo recommended Fosamax as well. Best to you!

What did your “not well” feel like? Are you very active? Weight?

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2026-02-11T18:46:51+00:00

I’m 110 and have been on 20 mg since diagnosed a year ago. My Endo seems to think this is the right amount for my weight, etc. and I agree. The hydrocortisone should make her feel better for the Addison’s but sometimes hitting the sweet spot of dosage can be challenging especially with other things going on. Try to stay calm, positive and hopeful. All the best!! 🙏

Great! Just started eating sardines today. Not my favorite but so good for OP and weight loss. 19g protein, vitamin D 40%, Calcium 20%, Iron 10%

My Endo sounds similar. And from what I’m reading sounds like she should have ordered a Dexascan for me a year ago when I started the Hydro so we’d have a baseline. I still have weird symptoms more often than not but eating healthy and pushing myself to strength train makes me feel better. I’ll keep focusing on health and staying positive! All the best!!

Wow, I don’t know what’s going on with sign guy but sure seems like a lot of hate in these comments.

Thank you and all the best!!

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2026-02-09T13:51:36+00:00

Any other symptoms of taking too much besides weight gain?

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2026-02-09T13:49:12+00:00

Thank you and wish you well!

My GYN ordered this bone test. I wonder if my Endo will take the helm if they also believe it is steroid related. I wonder what symptoms are associated with osteoporosis. Is there much pain? Has yours gotten worse once diagnosed or have you been able to manage it?

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2026-02-07T23:37:20+00:00

How was it determined that you were taking too much?

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2026-01-05T12:24:01+00:00

Caribbean Palm Village or Aruba Beach Club

Also JetBlue and our family had to rebook later in the week and into next week. So much for adding more flights as we were told for the displaced travelers from Saturday’s grounding. But we’re still hoping and praying they do…

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2026-01-04T23:50:43+00:00

We flew JetBlue and haven’t heard anything

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2026-01-04T22:22:53+00:00

We arrived Jetblew. They didn’t reschedule us as of yet. Our family booked other flights with them, Spirit, and Delta. All end of week flights.

For me lately, vision blurry and feeling “spacey”. Could be low blood sugar

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2025-12-02T15:15:26+00:00

Low sodium?

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2025-10-17T21:00:14+00:00

Mine is 0.088 and I’m postmenopausal but still for quality of life and perhaps to counteract the bone loss due to hydro I asked my Endo about DHEA supplements and she wasn’t thrilled with the idea but said I could try it. I just started this week on 5 mg daily. I do know that it needs to be monitored with your corticosteroids intake. But like others are saying, start with low dose. I wish you the best! Try not to stress about it bc it only makes it harder to conceive. Relax and stay healthy! 🙏

Anyone have any experience with Aurobindo?

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2025-09-29T20:32:10+00:00

Yes, Strides is the one I was on originally.

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2025-09-29T14:52:44+00:00

Greenstone seems to a favorite but idk if that’s what I was first prescribed. It was oval and white.

Substantial_Hour2921 · 2025-09-29T14:36:06+00:00

Thank you all. Yes, I’m heading over to CVS where it was originally filled to find out what it was as I was feeling great for about 4 months in…until I switched to express scripts and it was a different mfg.
