Is reclast the first osteoporosis drugs you've been prescribed?
I am assuming that you and your prescribing physician have discussed the results of your dexa scan and spoken about reclast and other drugs that are not bisphosphonates. Is she/he well trained in treating Osteoporosis? Would you share your dexa scores with us? Don't worry. You are not alone in worries about osteoporosis, all of the information out there and worries about making the best possible choices. As you read you will see that you are not alone!

My endocrinologist is the physician who recommended Reclast. I also have RA and see a rheumatologist. Yes this will be the first osteoporosis drug I gave taken. I don’t know how bad my T-scores are but I’d really prefer not to take medication.

My test results are as follows:

Lumbar spine:
(L1-L2):
0.858 g/cm2
T-score: -2.6
Z-score: -0.9

Lowest femoral:
Total Right-
0.655 g/cm2
T-score: -2.8
Z-score: -1.4

I hope this helps and thank you for responding.
