A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Grove City, OH

I went against my endo's recommendation and choose what I thought to be the least invasive drug with the fewest side effects after I was unable to take Fosamax.

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Bay Minette, AL

When my bone scan was done, about 5 months ago and I received my report.....my T-scores we're: Spine = -5.78, Hip= -4.38 and Femur= -3.27. My Orthopedic Surgeon, my Endocrinologist and my PCP say that those are the worst scores they've seen in a patient. Just wondering.
