Struggling with making an osteoporosis treatment decision

@jimmy05, I am still taking 70 mg of alendronate once a week. Next year I will have to stop after taking it for 5 years. I have had one Dexa scan. My spine improved to osteopenia, but my hips didn't. I'm probably due for a dexa scan this year.
I hope things go well for you!

@tsc
Can you let us know your T-scores before and after taking Fosamax? In other words, what was your T-score when you first started taking Fosamax?

@tsc thats encouraging that your spine improved to osteopenia!! Did your hips remain the same or get a little worse? I'm wishing you all the best!!!
