Back to aging--I got the results of my dexascan; my bone density has declined from what it was 2 years ago. The results went to my ob/gyn and my GP--I got a call from the GP's office first, saying there was no need for me to take medication but that I should continue to take vitamin D supplements. So I was surprised when I spoke with someone at my ob/gyn's office, who said I should take Boniva once a month. The GP was supposed to call me this afternoon so I could discuss this conflicting advice with her, but she didn't call. I don't want to take Boniva, so won't. But I guess I should have a dexascan annually now instead of every 2 years.
With everything I do--walking, yoga, pilates, weight lifting, stationary bike--it's disappointing that I'm still losing bone density. Guess I won't know if it would be worse if I didn't do all this stuff.
