@rngma1118 if I were you, I would request an explanation! Remember, no one else is going to advocate for you or better than you can yourself. When I told my endocrinologist that I was not getting any more treatment he requested that I come in and go over the pros and cons of receiving some form of treatment. As we age our bones do become weaker / brittle perhaps. However, I would prefer to live a bit of a productive life for as long as I can without having to spend my days with aches and pains and consulting with my physical therapist on ways to help me recover from the side effects from a treatment that I had received. I’m not sure what brought me to having a bone density test that started all of this. I do recall being told years ago, “ If it is not broke, do not fix it”. I can and will research any and all future treatments I receive when and where possible!

@dannyandebbie I'm totally in agreement with you. I firmly believe my last DEXA scan was erroneous to begin with, but even if it weren't my bone loss is not in the least severe and I have way too many other problems with my joints and spine to have any more aches and pains than I already have. With any of the treatments out there right now, I might as well reserve a bed in the local nursing home if I had to take any of them. Not for me. I prefer to exercise, eat as right as possible, and be very careful not to fall than to only be able to ache 24/7 and sit or lay down all the time. You would think our drug makers could make something that didn't have worse adverse affects than what they are intended to help/cure. Guess all that money we throw at them ain't going to research and development, probably in the CEO's pocket!
