Although I am much older than you, I started in a program at H.H. in October of this year. I was diagnosed w/osteo when I was in my early 40s.
The program I am in is a clinical research study on postmenopausal women but I can not say enough good things about the staff and facility at H.H. They are located in W. Haverstraw, N.Y. They have many studies going on all the time and I would highly suggest that you call them and speak to them about your situation. I feel quite certain that they would be interested in hearing your history and perhaps they have a study going on for premenopausal women. They are just a phone call away and you have nothing to lose. I only wish that they had been available when I was first diagnosed.
I would be interested in what they have to say if you do contact them.
Good luck!

Do you have a phone number or web link to them? I wonder if I could participate in the studies if I live in Illinois?
