Yes still taking ADT.
Did break spine before it was picked up. Thought just pulled my back. Went to a physiotherapist gave me exercises to do said I didn’t need an MRI. Wasn’t happy so I went for MRI privately. Picked up broken spine. Had a DEXA scan showed osteopenia.
Waiting to be referred to fracture clinic where they will give me more guidance probably on to medication for bone health.

Yikes, a broken spine. That happend to my father-in-law too. I'm glad you insisted on getting an MRI and will be going to the fracture clinic.
