Suggest Treatment Osteopenia

I am suffering constant muscle and bone pain and also noticed I am losing muscle mass. I was diagnosed with ostopenia a few months ago. I was not given any medication , the Dr. only suggested to take a dose of 1200 mg of calcium. Could this be a different illness? should I see a specialist?

dear friend
at the onset it is important that you share your age and gender, this will help us in making out if certain conditions can be ruled out or included.

osteopenia in its own will not cause the symptoms that you are telling us about, there will be some other reason for the issue, please do put up a detailed question for us to e able to help with a suggestion
