The new report shows that bone density has increased by 6% in my left hip and 6.4 % in my right. Yet the bone density of the lumbar spine has decreased by 2.4%.
10 year fracture risk, Major factor risk is up from 16.4% to 20.6%

I can absolutely see why you were so confused because to me, and I am not a doctor, how is it possible that you have a wonderful increase in bone density in some areas but a decrease in others! It doesn’t make sense to me either. Thinking I would seek have another opinion to explain this big discrepancy.
