Around 2017, after (I think) five Reclast infusions, I had a DEXA that indicated that my T-scores had improved somewhere into the stratosphere. My doc felt no additional Reclast infusions were indicated and this was pre-Tymlos/Evenity. So, new insurance company, new doc . . . and two years later my doc reads my DEXA and says that the 2017 scan must have been wrong (same machine, by the way) because a gain such as I had was pretty much impossible with Reclast and that my T-score was now back to that 2015 "normal". I really wasn't expecting much in the way of gains with Reclast as my doc told me it was just to keep things from deteriorating further so I was ecstatic.

It would be great if a doc sees something on a DEXA that looks abnormal/unusual, an additional scan could be ordered to verify. My doc told me that bone grows very slowly, so that should have been a trigger for the previous doc who didn't question the significant, and I mean significant, gains in the 2015-2017 DEXA numbers.

Why are we not entitled to a "second opinion" lab or diagnostic when we see squirrelly (no offense to squirrels) numbers or info on labs that look like they just don't belong? I think I finally found a doc that will listen . . . yay for me!

Hoping I don't fracture jumping down off my soapbox! Cheers, all!
