I had numbers close to yours. Both femoral necks were -2.5. Lumbar spine was -4.5. My GP put me on Reclast for 2 years. After 2 years on Reclast -2.4 in left hip and -2.5 in right
Lumbar spine -4.1. I have now had 1 year of Prolia. -2.2 in left hip and -2.5 in right. -3.6 in lumbar spine! Previously I had back pain from possible compression fractures. That mostly disappeared about 10 months into Prolia.

@pami I wish you had been able to go on Tymlos, Forteo or Evenity. A score of -3.6 is still very risky. I fractured three lumbar vertebrae at that level, with one unwise movement. (I also have 4 thoracic fractures from a fall, not osteoporotic).
