Patient had two years history of steroid use with no supplement or antiresorptive therapy.

There was a delay in the diagnosis which affected an otherwise good outcome in such situations.

It is recommended that patients on steroid should be given calcium, vitamin D, and an antiresorptive.

Furthermore, a meticulous clinical examination is required in patients who are on steroids and suffer epileptic seizures to rule out skeletal injury.
