I have osteoporosis, fell while walking fast in a parking lot and tripped over speed bump. Really hurt. Broke knee. After knee healed, my MD gave me.a presription for Fosamax to strenthen bone. That was two years ago, didn’t renew prescription. I have it on my list to ask him to prescribe it again.

I’m 89, very healthy in other ways. Still try to exercise an hour every day, which was easy a couple of years ago.. Takes time to get back to where I was.

I'm 84 and have Osteoarthritis bad...walk with the help of a walker.

Wondered for a long time if I should have the knee replacement but then my hips started going...

So I figure I would need a complete overhaul...going to tough it out!!!
