Critical osteoporosis

Hello doctors, please help me. My name is Vignesh. I am a DMD patient, age 25. I have been using steroids for a long time. First, I used Defcort 6 mg for 5 years. After that, I used Wysolone 10 mg for about 4 and a half years. Now, for the past 3 months, I am again taking Defcort 12 mg. Currently, my bones are in a very severe osteoporosis condition. It is extremely critical. I have been bedridden for the past 5 years. For the past 5 months, I have been lying down continuously and cannot even sit. I cannot even be lifted and moved to another place. I am always in the same place I do everything while lying on the bed. Now I don’t know what to do anymore. I am staying on the 3rd floor, and I cannot even go to the hospital. My bones are very critical — even light lifting can cause fractures. Is there any way to make my bones stronger while staying at home? Please help me. I am unable to do anything. My number : nine nine five two zero seven one seven four seven please call me 🙏

Low back pain

Hello, I am a 27 year old female in a desk job for 5years. I am facing a weird issue with my low back. I face extreme pain on my left lower back above the buttocks. I cannot sit or stand for a longer duration, I also cannot bend, if I bend I face issues while standing up, I feel like my back is stuck. Approx 4 inch on the back is a little swollen on my back(I feel when I touch). I was asked to do XRay but nothing was found. Recently I feel a clicking sound on my left knee when I walk or step up stairs. It also hurts when my leg is folded. I have been suffering a lot from this waist pain and leg pain for almost a year and no remedies helped. Can I ever recover from this, it's worsening day by day! I am too young and busy to deal with this, pain killers don't help at all!

Vitamin D deficiency

Hello doctors. I recently underwent a routine checkup and found out that I have critically low levels of vitamin D (6.5), while my serum calcium level is 10.1. I wanted to ask if I should proceed with the vitamin d3 (Cholecalciferol) weekly medication or should it prevent from taking it otherwise it would raise my calcium levels too? My regular doctor advised me to take the medication for two months. I just wanted to have a second opinion to make an informed decision. Thankyou
