Bone Density test?

[Apples Mk.II]

That's what I've been told that they need to do on me plus the bloodwork before deciding if they start it or not... Not knowing I am already on it.

There is no history of osteoporosis in my family, and seein how many hits I have taken and I am still alive. Is this the norm prior starting treatment?

Edit: Post #1500. Why did I never notice the #1000?

It might be determined depending on your age, or it could just be the doctor's call.

   I just had a bone density test and a mammogram no big deal passed both just fine and I am almost 64.You should not have a problem and it gives your doctor a baseline to work from which is why my tests were done besides I am kinda old!

They have booked me for additional tests:

- Karyotype
- Impedance

For february, which would also be my next endo appointment.

  I would love to have my karyotype done but don't think I can convince the VA to do it ,no matter my HRT is in the mail and I should have it soon.  Pat
