Hi everyone

I had my metabolic bone test results last week and they showed im borderline for all my tests and my scan showed my hips are fine but my spine is in the osteopenic range.

Wendy

One of my sisters also has the disease. I am 4 ft 9 inches tall. The shortest living adult with the disease in my family. I broke both my femurs in utero. I am lucky in… Continue
