Osteoporosis

So. Yeah. Had my bone density test. I have osteoporosis and a high risk of fractures.

Oh no! That is definitely not good. :(

Is there anything that they can do for it?

[unico_love]

I assume prescription calcium, light exercise, diet changes, etc. Not much at this point, I doubt. I'm mad my last endo refused to do a bone density test because I was "too young."

[tediousandbrief]

:( How old were you with your last endo who refused to do that?

30 -- a couple months ago.

You are probably at risk if your father has it, but it sounds like when you eat enough you often eat veggies, etc. which is good. I am sure I will at least have rx-strength calcium.

I'm so glad you pushed for the test and didn't give up. The news isn't good, but at least you know and I think knowing is much better than not knowing, especially with something like osteoporosis.

Email me if you want to talk.
