My Sympathy but congratulations for insisting on getting tested. You know that 90% of success is just SHOWING UP and you got that part under control. NOW WHAT TO DO??

While you decide on treatment try Bone Maximizer supplement that my friend swears by. It can't hurt and will give the old skeleton something to chew on right away. https://smile.amazon.com/MRM-Nutrition-Maximizer-antibiotic-Gluten-Free/dp/B07DRTRVCZ?content-id=amzn1.sym.deffa092-2e99-4e9f-b814-0d71c40b24af&psc=1&ref_=pd_bap_d_grid_rp_0_1_t

I had a shock when I got the osteoporosis diagnoses too and tried a bunch of treatments. All had side effects I could not tolerate. THEN I GOT TYMLOS and it is working. Users step up the dose by clicking the self administer pen. Recommended dose is 8 clicks. I started at 1 and am up to 7 and feeling fine. I get another bone scan in a couple of months and will share results.

MEANWHILE, DO NOT PICK UP YOUR GRANDCHILD AFTER 20 POUNDS. Lifting and carrying are the most dangerous moves I find. SO STAY SAFE and KEEP THE FAITH. You got to the doc in time and you'll be fine! PatJoh

Bone density results, what they mean:
-1.0 or above = Your bone density is considered normal

Between -1 and -2.5 = Your score is a sign of osteopenia, a condition in which bone density is below normal and may lead to osteoporosis

-2.5 or below = Your bone density indicates you have osteoporosis
