Happy New Year - yes I am still around

[Guest guest]

Hi all and Happy New Year.

I hope that everyone had a Blessed Christmas and Holiday Season. I have not

posted or read in sometime as life has been totally nuts ! BUT I did promise to

report in on my osteo after a year on the Forteo daily injection.

I had my yearly dexascan and while the osteo is better in my spine, it is worse

in the femurs, not by a lot, but a little bit. I can't get into the endo until

Feb 11th, unless there is a cancellation as I was so busy I forgot to call back

in Oct/Nov. I am curious what he thinks about the results. My PCP just wrote

" worse " and signed it and faxed it to me to take to the endo. She doesn't know

what to do with me. But oh well. I will find out in just over a month and report

in some more.

I was thrilled to see some improvement and the daily injections are for 2 years,

so maybe this is normal. My other labs are all good except I struggle to keep

Magnesium in a normal spot. Weird, but I am working on it.

Will try to catch up soon as I am behind by 300-400 posts. But there are 2

funerals this coming week, so it might take me a bit. I know 3 who passed in Dec

(not DS patients) so it's been a wierdly busy month overall.
