hi,
I've been reading the comments for a while. There are so many good
ideas out there. I am a t-10 complete, 7 1/2 years post injury.
Recently I had a bone density done, on my ankle. It showed that I have
osteoporosis. I am 44 years old. When I went to the docs they said
that usually they do not do bone density tests to women who still get
their periods. Since I had a test on my ankle they would do a whole
body scan. Results are pending.
Has anyone else had any run ins like this? Why are the docs not as
aggressive as they should be with us?
Have a great day.
mary
