@tiny28 CTX is a blood test that measures osteoclastic activity which is the breakdown of old bone. Here’s an official definition:
Serum cross-linked C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) is a marker of osteoclast activity and is used to assess the level of bone resorption.

Thank you . My rheumatologist only did the basic tests . Calcium Parathyroid etc. are there any other bloods she should have done as it’s a mystery to me why my osteoporosis is so bad when my bloods are so good and my lifestyle etc is good . I would appreciate your thoughts
