I had a bone density test last week or so.


The results came in the mail.


Says >>>Your bone density test was abnormal.


I have osteoporosis in the spine and hip.


Now I have even more pills to take.


He put me on    Fosamax 70mg


Calcium 500 3x a day


Vitamin-D 1000 units daily.


Hope you had a nice weekend.

Hi Doreen


Well sounds like they put you on enough to hopefully stop the problem for getting worse.

It's this darn Malabsoption I have.That's doin me in health wise.


I have the awfulest weirdest situation going on.Every one of my teeth has a cavitiy in it.Small black dots and the gum line no less. Seems like they all came out at about the same time.UGH!


Not clear as to what's going on to make this happen.But I believe it's caused from lack of vitamin-D.


I will be seeing the Dentist of course!
