Hi, I don't remember what my scores were, but my osteoporosis was pretty bad. I did not have any fractures, but probably would if I didn't do what I did. I knew I didn't want to go through what my mom did. She really suffered with it and had to take painful injections in her knees. I took and still take Garden of Life Vitamin Code Raw Calcium along with Vitamin D, at one point I also took MK-7 (its a form of K2) with this. I make up the difference of the Calcium that my doc recommended with plain calcium tablets . Sometimes this Raw Calcium is hard to find, sells very quickly, so I try to buy as much as I can when it's available. The Garden of Life also has a Growth Factor to go along with the Rain Calcium, but I do not take it. Somewhere I read that the strontium will give miss readings on your DEXA. I'm 72, and started going to gym about 6 years ago. I hope this helps and wish you well on your healing. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.
God Bless

sorry, please disregard what I said about my mom and injections in her knees. I accidentally jumped to another subject. This aging thing is sometimes a monster.....LOLOLOL

I declined to medications until I could obtain Tymlos, which along with Forteo and Evenity can build new bone, as opposed to just allowing the accumulation of old bone. Medication became necessary once I could not avoid a hip replacement. My bone density scores were -4.9, -5.1 amd -4. I will be tested next month to assess my progress, but I haven't had a fracture.
