I am 47 years old. In the last 1 1/2 years I have fractured 5 bones. Two in my foot one in my wrist and a few fingers. About 6 months ago I fell and suffered a compression fracture t 12 vertebrae in addition to a vertebrae fracture and a discocate d disc. >Io went to a metabolic bone center and took numerous blood tests. I am currently taking boniva and the doctor say s that my best bet is to take FORTEO. mY spinal t score is -4.76 and hip is -3.9 average. My back hurts all the time and the spinal specialist told me that it will be like that forever. I want to know is their any physical therapist that deals with these type of fractures to build up muscle is there any way to stop the constant pain. i was a runner 4 miles 5 times a week exerciser and very active. I had to stay home from work for 6 months to recover and I am now limited in my activity. And DEPRESSED. I am returning to work in 2 weeks, I am a single mom and having a hard time financially and must work regardless of pain or not. I have read about FORTEO and I am a bit concerned about the daily injection and the side effects that it might have. Does anyone have any information I appreciate allyour help.
