Is Osteoporosis reversible in post menopausal women?

My osteoporosis of spine went into osteopenia in a year with weighted exercise, weighted vest, etc, more calcium and less coffee. But CTX is still high. I don't understand. I've had so many blood tests for so many things (except P1np) even cancer (my doc is pretty thorough) She's calling me this week but I'm at a loss at how my bones could improve but not that.

Would you tell me how much calcium you get per day. Do you take calcium supplements
Thank you.
Do you work out with free weights (dumbbells) or machines? Thank you!

@debraran did you have DEXA's on the same machine? Even with the same machine, there can be variations with DEXA results. If you were close to borderline osteoporosis, another DEXA could have you in osteopenia, in my experience. My docs says only a difference of 0.5 is significant. Maybe you met that.
