I had the bone density tests after my breast cancer. My oncologist chose not to put me on any of the medications for osteoporosis because of the risk of more damage to my jaw and teeth from first cancer treatment. He too recommended calcium, vitamin D, diet and exercise. Just one more thing we need to be proactive about sharing to others who have traveled our path. Ahhh the joys of life :-)
