I think she does prolia. When she had the lower back surgery the doc had to cement in the screws cause they wouldn’t hold due to softness

She’s never seen an endocrinologist 🙃- i think it’s a primary who prescribes the prolia. Oh well. Guess she should be doing her own research. However, I ‘ll check the clear Scoliosis. Thank you.

It's wonderful that you are helping your sister. Her doctor's statement makes me worry that she needs protection. Everyone says odd things at least once in a lifetime. If the surgeon is highly skilled, uses the best hardware and technique, and has a good success rate odd comments pale in importance.
It is the life that's hard with scoliosis. Death will be from something else.
This surgery could dramatically change her life for the better.
