I know! And how many people have the time, opportunity and means to see more than one doctor? Except for the fortunate few, those of us managing bone health issues are often better informed about osteoporosis drugs and our own histories than the doctors we see. I know doctors have a lot to deal with, especially in these days of corporate style medicine, but an open, non-defensive attitude to our questions and knowledge goes a long way.

I agree that we need to keep pressing these questions about bone markers, drug choices relative to our own health histories, and other issues mentioned in our Mayo discussions. Perhaps with time, our informed questions will register and prompt more doctors to take another look at the way they approach osteoporosis.
