| My 73 year old mother has better bones than me(I'm 49)!! She and I had DEXA scans around the same time she is fine I have osteopenia. I use a cross trainer 5 times a week,walk once a week and do pilates twice a week, she walks about three times a week. My oncologist suggests the steroids and chemically induced menopause are the culprits. Calcitrate makes me throw up so Im left with higher impact exercise. Oh my poor bones!! |
