Just out of curiosity, what did you do for your thinning bones? Can you take one of those "bone boosting" drugs they give to women with osteoporosis?

I never thought of that, but no my pants don't fit better.

Since this is osteopenia, we caught it early and I can get away with extra calcium and Vitamin D. Anyone on pulse steroids should get annual bone scans, though. Keep that in mind so that you can catch anything like this early.

Good luck - I hope you have positive results.
