Not even Tylenol? Other osteoporosis meds can certainly prevent worsening and reduce the risk of fractures, so why not consider one? Most people tolerate them well, you can always stop if it doesn't agree with you. Calcium/mineral supplements are not very effective unless used alongside meds. Personally, I would be a lot more scared of the osteoporosis than its treatment.
Have you ever considered replacing your Lexapro with Cymbalta for the pain? It helped you before.
