How long does it take for osteoporosis to heal? My T score is -3.5, and I've been on calcium carbonate ...

calcium carbonate (Cacit + vit D) and Fosamax for 4 months, then calcium citrate (Citracal + vit D) and Fosamax since September. Over a total of 7 months my densitometry shows no improvement.
My doctor says it's normal, it takes a long time... If this is so it will take forever!

Why does it worry me so much? I'm only 42 and it gave me a small tibia fracture, which only seems to heal very slowly, and I 'm afraid there might be other fractures along the way.

Well, I know there's no miracle cure, but I saw a shrink who told me that my depression hampers the recovery. He says I reject my own body as it is, and I subconsciously hamper its reconstruction. Does that make sense?

At 42 it makes me feel like an old man, I really didn't that on top of AIDS.

Please give me some indications.

I'm so sorry you have osteoporosis as well as aids, do you think it would have anything to do with the fact you have aids. I'm sorry I don't know anything about it except I always thought it was a woman's disease! I do hope you'll soon be feeling better, chin up, sorry I could'nt be off more help.lol.
