my endocrinologist is not in favor of these test @windyshores. I've come across info which might explain his ambivalence... they shouldn't be used to determine osteoporosis. However, they are good guides to effect treatment of the medications! On the other hand, he wants DEXAs. So that is next month with the software analysis.
YES - now, I seem to not have any side effects! I might be tired - I seem to take naps but maybe I'm just getting older. I don't know. My belly distension went away when I stopped injecting in the belly after about 2 - 3 weeks and I ordered the 32 x 4mm ultra fine nano injection tips. They work amazingly well. My legs were bruising with the others. I can see why the P1NP would be ineffective after stopping use of the medication. it really should be a marker of medication "ramping up" to effect a change of increased bone building/mass. I am still very confused about the word "remodeling." I would use it to describe BUILDING but I think its used to explain undesirable deterioration. For the life of me I can't read the literature and retain it. Congrats on your DEXAs! That's the important thing. They can't do my lumber or my hips. So they use the wrist which is not really helpful. So, I'll be eager to see what they come up with. I've heard some say they CAN use the lumbar regions around where I've had surgery... so we'll see!
