Hi /u/ian4real - 45M here with similar T-scores as you. Is there a name for this collagen condition? Also, were there any markers in your blood work or specific blood/urine tests that helped with your diagnosis? I did two-years of parathyroid injections with no marked improvement and recently started bisphosphonate treatment. We still don't have cause yet, so we are treating the symptoms and I'm staying off ladders.

Sounds all too familiar. We've done several rounds of blood/urine tests and our next step is genetic testing. I have an appointment with the genetics team at the Mayo Clinic early next year to see what they have to say. Cheers!
