Initial blood tests to ask for ?

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.

Also I had someone tell me her parathyroid was involved. I will have to look up to see if a blood test for that is done.
I know endo's treat a variety of conditions including osteoporosis. Do people see a gyn for management I wonder?

Yes windyshores calcium and albumin weren't flagged as high on the CBC (or maybe that one is called 'complete metabolic panel' )... I think the calcium level must've just made it in the normal range I think it was 10.1
Thanks for your suggestions. A.
