@dianeelizabeth Here is the interview with Keith McCormick where he discusses his revised position on BHRT for women up to 15 years plus past menopause. He goes into most detail at 46:50 on video and also mentions it close to 24:00. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W--WWCwQczI Your spine sounds good still at -2.0. I wish I had this number! It's surprising you had a fracture. I'm glad you've had no pain so far. A physiotherapist advised me to ask for an X-ray after pain from a hip rotator stretch injury, but X-ray showed no fractures in that area. My GP never suggested the X-ray either when my numbers were far worse than yours. My regular PT says the pain is from inflammation in my SI joint and that I would be feeling horrendous pain if I had fractured there which I'm not. I've had decades of muscle back pain unrelated to OP. It sounds like Ontario's Ohip is similar to BC's coverage. My OP doctor said BC pharmacare would cover some OP medication only after a fracture! Isn't the idea to prevent fractures which would cost far more with nursing homes, care aides... The doctor said Evenity might cover partial costs depending on my circumstance if I decide to take it so I imagine they would offer this in Ontario as well.
