Relative risk When the drug pushers are trying to scare us into taking one of their drugs, they cite *relative* risk of some undesirable event happening if we don't take their magic molecule. But it's very hard - not impossible - to find the *absolute* risk. If the odds of an event like a fracture increase from one in a thousa... 10 Mar 2007 16:51

That way, the shock each time we land on the heel would be greater, and so would be the bone-building result. Of course, other parts of the shoe - arch support - remain important.

How careful do I have to be, really? I'm a 60 year old male, recently diagnosed with hyperparathyroidism, which apparently has been slowly disolving my bones for a few years. A DEXA bone density scan gave T-scores of -2.2, -1.2, -2.6 for spine, hip and forearm respectively. The report included the statement "Ensure fall prevention measures are in ... 25 Feb 2007 17:22
AFTER FOSAMAX? My MD is taking me off Fosamax next year as I have been on it for 5 years. My next bone density test is 2008. My scores have improved with it, and calcium + D, exercising, and hand weights for the last 3 years. Does a preventive medicine come next? shirleyann ... 25 Feb 2007 07:22 |
