Your mother probably is suffering from a condition called Steroid induced Bushings Syn Chat Doctor.  Corticosteroids affect bone in three main ways; 1) Loss of bone mass, 2) Loss of bone protein and osteoporosis lesions, 3) increased urinary excretion of calcium and phosphorus leading to bone loss. She should be evaluated by an endocrinologist and undergo tests like overnight 1-mg Dexamethasone suppression test or a 24-hour urine test for Cortisol. She may need further medications depending on the test reports. The patient should eat foods that are high in calcium and vitamin D and low in fat. To prevent the risk of fractures in patients taking steroids, prevention of falls is important.
