May this year i jumped 2ins and my T8 vertabrae collapsed, and yesterday bent over to pick up our pup and fractured 2 ribs. I was shocked at the Dexa scan 2.5 in hips 4.4 in my spine. Still wating to start treatment of daily injections.... Want to know more about these injections. At the moment i am taking Aleronic acid once a week, this plays havoc with my stomach. I am only 52 and cant beleive how easily these fractures have happened.
Shocked at Dexa scan at 52.
