Braces and the like, plus appropriate physiotherapy, should be offered by your local NHS Trust. But seeing the way a neighbour was recently passed from pillar-to-post with no-one willing to help makes me wonder if your area might be more accommodating.

My wife suffered an arm fracture at the beginning of Covid, so had a bone density scan and was put on Calci-D tablets and a one-a-month dose of Ibandronic acid.

Incidentally, Ibandronic Acid has been unavailable for a couple of months. Our local pharmacy had no idea what was happening, but Google told me that production will not start until at least April 2026. I told our GP receptionist, and he told me to ask the pharmacist for an alternative, and then tell the GP so that he can produce a script for it. Pillar-to-post yet again.
