I too, was oteopenic from the effects of chemo and Arimidex. Have been on Fosamax for 2 years along with calcium and Vit.D. I have recently increased my D intake(thanks Harriecanarie)and hope my next Dexa scan shows improvement. But I am with" hutchibk" it is tough to be disciplined and remember to take those vitamins daily. NanaKaren
