I gained a pound this week, not good, but I'm not going to let it get me down...... I am proud of the fact that I am winning in the fight against osteoporosis!
I went in for a screening today at my local pharmacy. It involved an overview of my osteo risks and a bone density screening (an ultrsound type test of the bone density in my wrist. I am at high risk due to family history and early menopause, but I have a reading of 0.5 higher ( better) than the average 25 year old! They told me the most bone loss occurs in the first 5 years after menopause, so I am past that and still doing good. Keeping active and all those calcium supplements work!
