Thank you for all the sharing of information. My last Dexa was -2.5 in the spine so not horrible and no fracture history or falls. However, my dental history is not good with bone loss (not a candidate for implants for that reason) and I'm expecting other extractions down the road. Because I'm so worried about the dental risk, the dr is suggesting Tymlos or Forteo for 2 years instead of Fosamax. But either one has to be followed immediately with a biphosphonate (she likes Reclast). So after 2 years of injections, I would be right back to the risk of jaw necrosis from the biphosphonate. Just doesn't seem prudent given a -2.5 Dexa. I don't want to be foolish either but my primary/gyn weren't all that concerned with a -2.4 for years. I know it's my choice so I'm thankful there's knowledgable people here to help sort it out.
