Yes, not sure how decision is made to medicate or not. All areas tested for me were osteoporosis (spine, left hip, left femoral neck, so doc medicated). Next dexa is in July; not sure what numbers need to be in order to try a "drug holiday", which for me is the goal. I believe some doctors give a medication break if you get into osteopenia; others treat osteopenia the same as osteoporosis. Is the goal for our bones to be that of the dexa comp of a 30 year old woman? Or just improvement of a certain percentage? I dunno.
