@babs10 your baseline bone markers are indeed unremarkable. If these were my numbers without having a high frax score, I’d wait and repeat a yearly Dexa, with tbs preferably. Make sure fall prevention as a top priority during the interim. Your last Dexa doesn’t show a typical bone loss pattern due to estrogen deficiency. I found your hip readings puzzling. One of my relative has normal spine bmd and tbs reading but hip t score at -2.2, strange too. Waiting to see a specialist but it’s 8 months away.

I remember you are going to repeat a Dexa with a tbs soon, right? That’s a good idea. Once you find the right facility/machine, you’d have a good base Dexa for future comparison.
