Bone concern

bone concern/
Not sure where to post

my latest Dexa scan shows osteopenia.
I asked my doctor if I qualify for zometa or some other bone building medication.
Maybe Not only to build bone but I thought it could also protect against
Bone metastecies.

She basically said no and suggested I take supplements, which is fine, I guess.
So what are some supplements that
Go along with vitamin D?
She suggested calcium but The problem with calcium is that every time I go on calcium I get Kidney stones. The urologist
Has told me Not to take Calcium.
I'm also diabetic since chemo and lots of milk raises my glucose.
Thanks ahead for any suggestions -
Melissa
