I was recently diagnosed with severe osteoporosis by my regular doctor. Besides calcium supplements, is there anything else that I should be doing?

There are multiple things that you can be proactive about to prevent progression of bone loss as well as prevention of fractures.  According to a recent editorial in The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Own The Bone Medical Centers are the currently recommended providers for holistic care of osteoporosis.  They include a multidisciplinary approach to care and can give guidance in nutrition, exercise, medication, fall prevention and lifestyle modifications.
