@hungrybirder I too put faith in repeated scans that show consistency or a trend. My 6 DXAS in 5 years or so showed continual decline and then a sudden dramatic increase in bone density. That increase followed a year of Evenity my first and only bone med at that point. I know DXAs are imperfect but for me the results made sense. I've only had one REMS and because I have had only one I do not know what to make of where it's results varied from my DXAs.

For the time being, I'm going with the DXA numbers simply because they have been relatively consistent over the years. I'll know more with the next scan. It's frustrating not. knowing what numbers to trust.
