Jeff- do they make Xray of your bone and determine if you need Fosomax or they prescribe it automatically no matter how your bones look like if you need an ADT ?

For me, it was automatically Prescribed, Probably because they figured I’d be on ADT for a long time since I had two reoccurrences already.

I should’ve mentioned this, and I’m sure you are aware of it, but at the most, you would just need a DEXA scan to figure out whether you needed bone strengtheners.
