What Is A Good Replacement For Tegretol Which Does Not Drain Away Calcium?

Hi. My name is Alison Stahelin. I took a fall from a horse back in 1988 and have suffered from seizures and terrible back pain ever since. I have been on a few medicines but tegretol is the medicine that stopped the seizures but it also has drained all the calcium in my bones. And gave me the worst case of osteoporosis in a woman my age they have ever seen. So I though this might be a better medicine to help me.

Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
You fell from a horse in 1988, and have seizures and back pain.using tegretol, and other medicines. Now you are a bad case of osteoporosis, probably due to the tegretol.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods to compensate the osteoporosis in a natural way.
I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.Thank you.
