How do you get the local osteo enhancement procedure?:
I posted a couple of months ago about something I've been interested in for a year or more, every since reading about it - the 'local osteo enhancement procedure." They put some sort of filler - sounds like the glue they use in backs, but probably a little different - in your bones and it makes them dense again. You can avoid the drugs and it works faster. One of the comments by the doctors was women weren't taking the drugs (duuh).
I contacted the company to see what trials you had to get in to get this thing and the good news is - ok it's a schelp - it's already approved in Europe. They offered to send me a list of doctors in the different countries and I wrote back that I wanted a complete list.
I'm ready to do it. I don't want to take the drugs and yet the limited life of someone who has to always worry she might break something - and could break something even if she gives UP all the fun things like skiing and skating - is not something I want either.
