Osteonecrosis and Lupus




To rule out Avascular Necrosis / Osteonecrosis, I underwent Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of both hips. Good thing, the results were good. Pain felt was just because of inflammation and not necrosis. Monitoring is still important because I'm taking Prednisone for years. Milk and Caltrate vitamins are my bestfriends too! It is also important to exercise everyday and to manage weight. Hopefully, I can lose more weight so there will be a lower chance of having osteonecrosis.
