I think my endocrinologist must be pretty good and thorough because, during my first visit with her for osteoporosis, she ordered the thyroid tests in addition to the bone scan, as well as the test for celiac disease, the reason being that can cause a problem where your intestinal system is not able to absorb calcium and vitamin D. When the tests came back it it showed normal levels of thyroid and celiac, so osteoporosis is the official diagnosis. She prescribed an anabolic, Teriparatide, due to the fact that I will need a tooth extracted in the near future. A biophosphonate drug like Reclast or Evenity right now could interfere with that. She said she will prescribe Relcast in two years once the tooth problem is gone.
