HI!
So sorry you are having bone density problems.
The first thing I would recommend, is to have your Vit. D levels checked. You can take all the calcium in the world, but if your vitamin D levels are inadequate, you can still have osteopenia. Many people are Vitamin D deficient.
Here is a link to the Harvard School of Public Health, and very good article about Vitamin D with references at the end.

Take care!
