Osteoporosis

Damn - I think I've officially become an old lady now. Apparently my bones are in danger of breaking any moment. I didn't think the DXA scan was really necessary, even though I've broken three bones in the last few years, and now I'm not sure that I really wanted to know the results. Presumably I've had osteoporosis for some time, so I'm not getting out the bubble wrap just yet. It's undoubtedly years of being underweight that's done it. Of course now that I no longer have hormones and therefore hardly any migraines, I'm not underweight any more, but I have to live with bird bones as a consequence.
