Echolight sonogram scan for bones

hello . Is there any test of this nature on long island ? My DR. keeps wanting me too go on prolia for bones. i will not . I need a more natural approach . If you have ant answers i would appreciate it.

Good afternoon @dee1955,

It is interesting that this sonogram type of device is now FDA-approved. The headquarters of this Italian company is located in New York City.

Here is the link.

Some of the links are not responding as directly as I expected. Give it a try though. And would you share your findings with others on Connect? Thanks.

I don't understand why Prolia is the only choice offered to you by your medical specialist. It appears that you have done some research on Prolia. Some folks have been on it for years without any difficulties. My concern is that you have to be very careful to preserve your bones if you choose to stop using Prolia.

What have you been using to measure your bone health and condition?

I exercise since i've been in junior high . i"m 67 now still do every day . I eat rich foods in calcium and nuts . and take vitamins 4000 in vit D3 ,Flax oil for omega ,zinc, I'm more of doing everything natural .

i click on it and its in another language on the cookies to accept . I'm not comfortable with accepting it in a diff language. what should i do. and is it covered under medicare .

I was able to access the Echolight website in English. I do not believe Medicare will pay for REMS scans at this time.

I am a bit cranky, but nothing is "natural" unless you are talking about what a hunter gatherer kills and collects.

Your supps are not natural -- nature doesn't purify, isolate, and concentrate vitamins and minerals as supplements do. And who knows what is missing from your supps that might make the mineral work better or at all if only you had gotten it as food.

Not everyone benefits from a medication or a supplement and those unlucky enough to experience bad results are more likely to hit the internet about it.

Besides, you can always try something - either what you lean toward or something you are scared of. You can stop; you can see what works and what side effects you can put up with.

As far as radiation goes, look at the studies (include NIH is your search criteria) and not at the blogs.

Good luck and take care 🙂

Wondering if any Mayo hospitals use the Echo Light machines?

@dee1955

The closest may be in Wayne NJ. They are very slow at rolling this test out in the USA🙁.
Hope the link works 🥰
