Hi Llonghair,
Why don't you take some medication (calcium + vitamin D supplements for instance)?
I took a bone density test one month ago and it came out OK, bone density decreased a little bit compared to a reference test I did 18 months ago but I'm still on or above average.
I considered that as a success as I've been on Pred since August 2007 and a year ago I was taking 75 mg/day (I'm now at 13 mg/d).
I take 500 mg/d Calcium + vitD, + Actonel (once a week) and try to have enough milk and cheese in my food schedule, should I have known, I would have skipped Actonel (a biphosphonate) and boosted calcium…
Maurice.
