Early osteoporosis and falling injuries women?
hi,im a female in my late 20s and i have osteopenia since i was a teenager. due to malnutrition and anorexia. so i was diagnosed a few years ago but ive suffered from ,malnutrition and starvation begining in my early teens. so i most likely had it since thenso i never built bone mass, wich is different . im not losing bone mass like a 60 yr old woman with osteopenia might. so i cant go on those drugs, also i didnt go through menopause yetso the only reason is the malnutrition and i never built bone mass. no other health issueanyhow sofar ive suffered alot of injuries, fractures due to the osteopenia. i also think my muscles are weak but not sure if oesteopenia can cause weak muscles ?i have a difficult time healing from my fractures and getting mobile again. i noticed i had an accident last week, bruises too slipped on the floor and since then i feel like i can barely move or walk, and im walking slower than normal. still have more pain too.ive spent alot of time in my 20s disabled due to injury. and i do tend to trip alot, ive been a klutz since i was a small kid. how can i make a life for myself if im always disabled and have pain and can barely move. it took me 4 years after a back injury recently to be able to start to walk normally again, when the doctor said for most people it should be 6 months at mostshould i plan to spend most of my life disabled because i have the osteopenia and that means ill probably have full osteoporosis earlier than normal.l maybe in my 40s or 50s?should i put any education or career plans on hold. because its difficult for me to move aroundso i cant work right now in years and dont go to collegealso am i going to end up in a wheelchair? im scared of that. even after my injury i refused to go to a wheelchair to i used a walker instead and then forced myself to walk on my own afteri know also that my height was stunted due to the osteopenia. i only reached about 5" 4. stopped growing at 13. but genetically i could have been around 5" 8 like my older sistersill be 30 in another year or two, so how should i plan my life? should i live as if im a fragile senior citizen now? does it mean i wont live to be 90? is it too late for me to build any more bone mass since i have severe osteopenia, its right on the border of osteoporosis its a bad numbershould i not expect to have a career in the future throughout my 50s, will i still be able to be mobile and independant if i get full osteoporosis in my 40s?what kind of careers are safe to get i havent started any career yet if i become more disabled in the future and must work from home, or not walk around or stand up alot, or not be able to keep a schedule daily or be somewhere at a certain time due to mobility troubleplease done tell me find a sympathetic millionare to marry. i havent found one of thosealso im supported by my parents financially right now because i cant work, how can i support myself and be more independant while i have the osteopenia, and mobility troubleis there any assistance i can get due to my injuries and medical issues? or financial help?im also caucasian and small medium boned, and my grandmother got osteoporosis in her 70s. so it runs in my family anyways as it does in many caucasians and asian females.

Does osteopenia always lead to osteoporosis?
I have been diagnosed with osteopenia by my bone density results. I have had two infusions of Reclast, one in 2009 and one in 2011 insurance will not pay for Reclast, for osteopenia, but every other year. My last bone density showed that my numbers were better in my back but worse in my hips. Will it turn into osteoporosis anyway? I'm not worried, just curious.

The fluid sacs in my knee burst... I'm 16, do I have authorites or osteoporosis?
I got into a skateboarding accident around 11 months ago, and the fluid sacs in my right knee burst. For a while I had knee pains but it has gotten progressively worse. When I walk for a long time or bend my knee or do physical activity my knee hurts so much I want to cry. It feels like two styrofoam balls rubbing against eachother inside my knee. Sometimes my whole leg goes numb. If you put your hand on my knee while I bend my knee you feel vibrations like when you rub two balloons together and it feels wierd. Is it related to the fluid sacs bursting? Should I go see my doctor?
How can i stop my osteoporosis?
Hi i have had Anorexia Nervosa for five years, i have been in and out of treatment, and was diagnosed with osteoporosis at age 21. i have maintained my weight at 93 pounds for a year now, and my height is 5'4. The problem is i have not had a bone density test since 2009, and the last time i was in inpatient treatment, the doctors told me i had to gain more weight in order to fix the osteoporosis, that no amount of calcium would fix it. But then i went to another doctor, who said he thought i could remain at my weight and fix the osteoporosis with calcium. so i'm not sure what to do. I really am so fixated on my weight, and hate the weight that i am at right now, that i just want to lose all the weight i gained, my lowest weight was 73 pounds even though i know that losing weight would just make my health worse. i never drink water, and i eat limited quantities of fruit and yogurt, and coffee makes up the majority of my diet. i am also not allowed to exercise. I'm worried if i go buy the hospital's recommendation to eat more, i will gain weight. i get paranoid if my weight goes above 93 pounds. i hate having osteoporosis while being so young, and i don't really know how to stop it. too scared to gain more weight. any advice is appreciated
I'm a 22 year old girl with osteoporosis, is this going to limit me in my life?
If someone could please take the time to read this and answer my questions I'd greatly appreciate it.I've broken many bones in my lifetime, and just two months ago suffered my worst break yet. I shattered my tibia plateau. When I had my surgery consultation the guy told me I have osteoporosis. When I went in for my surgery, the surgeon told me I have osteogenesis imperfecta because my schlera's are blue. I've been trying to research some things on the internet but I really don't understand it. Why am I being told two different things? How do I find out what is really the case? Why wouldn't my family doctor have suspected something?Anyways, so before I broke my leg I was very active. Always going to the gym and running. Even in my cast I'm lifting weights and doing sit ups. I'm just wondering how having something like this is going to affect my life? I am really into " risky" sports, like snowboarding, skateboarding, wakeboarding, and skydiving. I did break my arm snowboarding in the past. Do you think I'm going to be able to continue doing stuff like that? I always have new interests too.. I really want to learn how to do the flying trapeze. Am I being crazy?I dislike jobs where I have to sit around all day but the way the surgeon was talking, my knee is never going to be the same and I'll be riddled with athritis from all my breaks before I know it. This makes me so sad. I love being really busy and active at work, and was hoping to become a nurse.Gah. I don't know, osteoporosis and my personality just don't mix and this is going to kill me inside.

Can osteoporosis be cured?
I was diagnosed about 3 years ago. For 1 1 2 years I used the drug Forteo, but it has a limited amount of time it can be used by any patient. After that time was completed, the doctor said my 'numbers' were back to normal. So, can it actually be cured, or will I have to be treated for it repeatedly with multiple medicines? I am lucky in that I do not have heavy symptoms.
