I hope that your physican is treating your osteoporosis. Are your on bone builders, either fosamax or calcitonion. When you have osteopotosis your bone mass losses the ability to attract calcium to maintain bone density. Also a monthly dose of vitiam D should be given, Taking calcium will only create calcium kidney stones. You need to see a specialty physican for this disorder. With treatment you can prevent bone breakage. If you have any further questions let me know, Ruth Paxton, RN, BSN
