Did you know that you don’t have to wait a year to see if your interventions are working. DEXA only tells you what your bones are like at the time of the test. Bone Marker blood tests can show what is currently happening. Your doctor can order CTx and P1NP tests for you. They should really run these before prescribing meds to see if you need to lower your osteoclasts or raise your osteoblasts. They should then run them again to check the meds are working. From what I have read most Drs do not do this which is bad as they don’t then know what is causing your bone loss for sure. They can just guess.
Also, if you are trying to go the natural route you can ask them to order the tests. This can help you choose the right natural interventions and also you can see if your natural interventions are actually working or not. If your Dr won’t order them you can order yourself and pay for them. They are around $300 for both tests from Quest or Labcorp. I have found a company that you can order through. OsteoIQ. They can get them a little cheaper than ordering for yourself.
Good luck with the goats milk. I am not ordering the powder but I did start drinking it.
