Recent Reclast Experience

Hmmm I am seeing endo mid April; blood work ordered so we will discuss I am sure at this appointment. Reclast July 2025, (was supposed to be in April, but I put it off due to fear!) but he did not want me to do a DEXA yet, was told we would discuss at appointment. I am a bit confused by this, was told at last year's appointment that DEXA is once a year if diagnosed with osteo, which would be about now. Before last July's Reclast infusion my CTX was at 58, but the only reason I know that is I asked for it...I don't think my doc does bone markers regularly; I know some don't rely on them. It is on my current blood work order, along with NTX. And CTX was between fosamax and reclast; I've read that a baseline of these tests before osteo meds is more typical? Would love to hear from anyone who has had DEXA after one year of Reclast, and what T scores are!

@jozer i’m going through the same thing sort of I am on Forteo. I have to be in Forteo for two years. Then they wanted to put me on Reclast but I heard horror stories about kidney stuff. I had been prone to kidney stones so I have to be very careful on this stuff. I don’t know what to do but my doctor is the same way. I had my DEXA scan two years ago and she won’t order until next year or the end of this year which makes no sense
