Liability is what unfortunately drives much of the decision making for these drugs. I couldn’t even get my rheumatologist to order up bone turn over markers; he stated that endocrinologists do that. When I asked for a referral from my primary there was a year long waiting list to see an endo in my area. I am now on the long road of BHRT, weight lifting, high protein intake and supplements praying I can come up out of this hole. It’s beyond frustrating because I do believe if there was a ‘will’ to make these changes that could benefit so many it would happen.
