Guest guest Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 Just wanted to let everyone know that I too have osteoporosis. My Bone Density Scan that I had in May 2004, wasn't good. My bones are like an 80 yr old lady! I'm 37 now. Anyway, I was taking Actonel to prevent further bone loss, but there is something new out too. It is called Forteo. It comes in an injectible form. You take it once a day for 2 years, then stop. In that amount of time, you can gain a significant amount of bone back. I started it in August of this year. I absolutely hate giving myself a shot in the stomach or thigh, but I know it is not forever and I am going to gain back the much needed bone mass that I loss due to the Celiac Disease/Chronic Pancreatitis. If anyone wants any more info. Feel free to email me or post a message here too. Take care Kris in TN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
