Mixed Bizness

I met with the endocrinologist this morning to review my tests. Everything came back normal, but due to the type of injury I've endured, they're suggesting I go on a medication to help build bone for a couple of years as a preventative measure. Before I start the meds, they need to do one more test, and I think that will be it, unless that test comes back abnormal.

Yesterday my son mentioned that he had a pretty good birthday. We went out for sushi and he had his first legal beer, the Chargers won, he went out with a friend and ended up showing some big and burly college guys how to change their flat tire (my son is a stick, so that made him feel all strong), and made it home early enough for cake and the obligatory song.

Back to reality... Our relatively new water heater is leaking... a lot.

Yesterday's song:
Angel Of The Morning - Juice Newton - Barbie2be

Peace

Wish there was a natural way to build bone instead of having to take meds.

Glad your son had a good B-Day!

Oh no!!!! Hope you find a solution for the water heater and that it doesn't cost alot!

Today's song title is tough.

Let us know how the Fosomax works. It makes sense in your case, though I thought your bone density was OK. Well, preventative medicine is a good thing.

Evelyne,
He had a great day. Now it's back to reality and back to studying... I don't mind taking a pill if it's a preventative measure.

Anne,
The bone density test numbers have me perplexed since it depends who I talk to about it. One doctor says I don't have osteoperosis or osteopenia, and the other says I'm right on the threshold of osteopenia. I don't get it, since they're both in the same department. They do both agree on the meds, though.
