Many people with aspergillosis are vulnerable to osteoporosis, partly due to some of the medication they take, partly due to their genetics and partly age.
There is a complete guide for the treatment of osteoporosis by the NHS at the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) called Osteoporosis – prevention of fragility fractures and you can read it here.
However, you may prefer the easier-to-read guidelines offered by the Royal Osteoporosis Society which is comprehensive and excellent. There is even a helpline manned by a specialist nurse during office hours Monday-Friday.
There are lots of options for treatment available!
