@njx58 thank you so much for sharing your story and I am so sorry you had to fracture for this to be revealed. I worry about my husband and the other men in my life whom I care about.

@gravity3 Thanks! Men need to realize that this isn't just something old ladies get.
And, as people here know, the challenge is to find a doctor who knows the score. My PCP just said "take Fosamax and get a DEXA in two years." Wow - apart from doing nothing at all, that would have been the worst thing I could have done! That's when I decided to contact Dr. McCormick as well as an experienced endocrinologist.
P.S. as I've posted before, Tymlos is helping me a lot, and yesterday I ran a 5K race. 🙂
