@osteopatient2026 yes they are all good. I didn’t have as much of an increase as they wanted from the first year of TYMLOS but I think that’s because I wasn’t. I was injecting in the thigh most of the time which they had said was OK because I have a mobility problem to look at my stomach while I inject. So after much investigation, I stretched myself to only inject in my abdominal area. I went to the orthopedic surgeon yesterday, and there was a huge difference in the density of my bones down my spine. It is possible that part of that could be the difference between the film, capture of the x-ray, but we’ll see at the end of August when I do my next DEXA and see the doctor and figure out the next course of action for the following year. It will report back after August 20 on all the scores. I previously posted my CT X/PN1P and my 1.6% increase in bone density the first year and my base lines. Nobody should rely entirely on the tests because they are only approximations as I found out. Make sure you’re getting your DEXA with the TBS score so it’s consistent. That’s the most important thing from year to year. Your vitamin D has nothing to do with your bone density and neither does your calcium level so I wasn’t sure why you mentioned those. You should not do any supplementation without having labs first! When it comes to vitamin D and vitamin and calcium! If you carry genetic coronary artery disease and you supplement with calcium it is really bad as the supplemental calcium causes your arteries to harden. My calcium has stayed to consistent number my entire life exactly what it should be which has helped me avoid coronary artery disease progression. My vitamin D was low 11 years ago so I was put on a supplement and then the supplement was increased, but I get tested periodically so the vitamin D doesn’t go high. It also can be dangerous if it’s too high, so I keep it right in the middle. When they tell you to drink milk when you’re a kid to build strong bones, getting your calcium phosphorus and vitamin D it’s very different when you grow to be an adult and you may be lactose intolerant and inherit genetic diseases. Your natural immunities from birth wear off when you’re a teenager and 77% of Americans are partially lactose intolerant. I am both lactose and caffeine intolerant so drinking and eating dairy with lactose in casing did nothing but ruined my intestines by the time I got to be 60. Had to change my diet entirely.
