15 yr old w/ osteoperosis of the spine

ok my husband has osteoperosis and fibrominalgia (spelt wrong I know)

the osteoperosis was found when he was 15 he is only 20 now and I was wondering how long until his back starts to reeeally curve to where he needs a cane and cant do much. I love him and would be happy with him no matter what I am just worried about him not being aable to run around with our little girl. she is only 7 months now.

usually peopledont get this untill like 40 so by the time their back curves they are like 60 so help, anyone.

Well to me it really depends on how strong your husbands bones are. Both cases have to do with the bones and joints weakening. My mom was diagnosed with it when she was about 34 so the ages vary. I don’t know how long he has until the effects like that take place. My mom had it for 4 years without a cane until she passed away but it wasn’t from fibromyalgia or osteoporosis. I think that’s something you should ask his doctor. They both deal with pain in the bones, tissues, ligaments, and, joints. So ask his doctor he can tell you a lot more than I can but I hope the information that I gave you was helpful.
