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

@tiny28, I'm surprised your rheumatologist only ordered the calcium parathyroid test. What about the 24 hour urine calcium? However, even if this test is normal, the calcium may still not be reaching your bones as explained in "Great Bones". You can find all the recommended tests in Keith McCormick's "Great Bones" book.
