@broken13 Maybe you've already explained, but was there a fall or movement that caused your spinal fractures? It's something I'm concerned about since my spine is -4.1 and so far I've not fractured and wish to avoid any of the bone drugs. (Although Forteo and Tymlos are not available due to my parathyroid issues.). Thanks.

@daisy17 Initial compression fractures occurred after going over a few waves in a small boat. The succession of fractures occurred after I had healed from the first set, one from lifting a sweater to a top shelf, and two while recovering in bed. My Lumbar Spine was -4.1 in 2009 and -4.8 in 2014. I fractured 2016. I would recommend you be a proactive as you can in doing some sort of bone builder/protection. It was seriously the most painful and dibilitating time of my life. I'm sure you have been to an endocrinologist ? After 10 years on Prolia, my sister just found out she had nonsymptom Celiac, which contributed to her bone loss. That test should have been done right in the beginning. We certainly have to research and advocate for ourselves.
