@zolamiller7 So sorry you are dealing with this. I hope you have good care and feel good about your doctor.
If you don't mind, how did you know to get tests on your bones? And what tests? I am having increasing hip pain that is different from arthritis. Not anxious yet but feel like I will get it checked.

The bone scan is called DEXA. The DEXA scan will give you a score on bone density & the chance for fractures. Some of the AI’s or hormone suppression meds can cause bone loss. I just had a scan before starting on meds. It can help you decide which medicine you would do better with. Best wishes on your journey!
