Prednisone induced Osteoporosis

If you still have your uterus you will need to have progesterone too or have the mirena coil fitted

I have not had bone thinning as severe as osteoporosis but I have improved my t-score from a level where drugs were advised to a level where they aren't, from -2 to -1.6.  In one year, more than half of that year at a pred dose still above 5 mg.  Google healthunlocked my osteoporosis journey to find my account.  

I am not alone in having been able to improve my bone density.  I was given advice on the natural means by a woman who had osteoporosis and improved her bones into the osteopenia range, and continues to improve.  From time to time someone posts about their own experience.  There are some people who don't seem to be able to get any better but it seems that most people who try the natural means are able to improve.  It's very possible that those who have no luck have some other underlying disease which prevents them from forming enough new bone and once that issue is resolved then their bones become more dense again.. I think that someone has posted about the parathyroid being involved in such a condition.

I had steroid-induced osteoporosis of the spine in 1998 - 2001, after being on long term Prednisolone in 1996. I was prescribed 'FOSOMAX', 70 mg once a week. I had my regular scan in September 2001 and the nurse was so astonished that she did the scan again as the medication had cured the osteoporosis! I don't know if FOSOMAX is still available to be prescribed but if it is, try it.
