Hi Cathy i agree with Becky. Eating well and exercise are important. I walk my dog about 1 mile a day but I really need to step it up for the cardio exercise. I do walk at a pretty good pace but I still think I need more cardio. I have joined a gym, do the bike there, some weights etc. Mind you I have so many aches and pains some days it seems to make it a little worse. Oh well aches and pains we can handle that is small potatoes to all the stuff we have been through. I also take Vitamin D 3000IU a day and Calcium 1500 a day (oncologist said to make sure I take the calcium because Femera can cause some bone loss) I do have osteopenia as well. I tried to really remember to eat my veggies (even though I really dont like many )and dont eat too much red meat. I also buy organic milk and read my labels now much more carefully than I did before. I dont eat any soy products and drink green tea which I like anyway. I limit my wine consumption I really love to drink wine and I would say I might have two glasses of that per week or not even that. Anyway I wish you all the best, keep positive, I know it is such a pain in the ass to go through this but we can only go forward. Best wishes Lois.
