Nikki -
Pardon my doctor hat for the moment - but do you mind my asking, what muscle disease did you have? And do they have an explanation for your osteoporosis? What are they doing now for your osteoporosis? Just asking because I know sometimes modern medicine puts bandaids without actualy getting to the root of the disease process.

I was going to tell you to go for it with regard to the skiing, but if you really have such bad osteoporosis, it's probably not the best choice of sports for you (take it from a woman who broke 3 ribs snowboarding a few years back!).
