Hi,
"As" per your clinical history is concerned, do take all medications for lungs and wait for biopsy report to know the exact cause of lesion. Secondly, for back pain do a clinical examination by your Doctor [Rheumatologist] and measure bone density [DXA SCAN] to rule out osteoporosis after menopause. Regarding medication, you can discuss with your treating Doctor about prescription Bisphosphonates like [Alendronate] and hormone therapy [Estrogen].
Do follow lifestyle modifications like this to prevent bone loss -
1) Take low-fat dairy products, dark green leafy vegetables, soy products, such as tofu, calcium-fortified cereals, and orange juice etc., to get calcium and if it is insufficient then you can take oral calcium supplement regularly.
2) Do check her vitamin D level if low then discuss with your Doctor about oral supplements.
3) Do exercise regularly at least 30 mins every day.
4) Try to avoid smoking and alcohol.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
