Re: Bone scan osteopenia?

I think it is generally accepted that the AIs like Aromasin worsen the lessening of bone density that often is part of ageing. I developed osteopenia after several years on Arimidex. As I am on Denosumab anyway, I hope that it is keeping this problem under control.
An annual dose of zometa sounds like a good plan, and of course you need to watch calcium and vitamin D levels, as well as trying to do weight-bearing exercise.
So many women have osteopenia - I hope it doesn't cause too many problems for you.
