Thx. I'll look up my CBC's to see if calcium and albumin are there - I'm thinking that they are along with "D" but if dr says OK I can repeat those and I had to look up P1NP (page 153 in Great Bones book).
I don't think I will be getting the entire data from my dexa until after my dr appointment - I requested it but so far, I only have the report.

Can you explain more what CTX and P1NP tests are? Also what we should do if they are not in the correct range?
