To say I never want another day like this one would be an understatement. I have cried and been angry at the same time. I miss Pip so much it hurts. I know it was for the best because she was failing fast even if it seemed she...

alamode @alamode (3071) • United States 14 Mar 08

talk to your doctor about a DEXA scan to check for osteoporosis. I found out Tuesday that I have a severe case... I've shrunk 2" in 3 years, and 3 different doctors neglected to tell me that I had it. I don't mind getting shorter...

sharon1980 @sharon1980 (116) • Philippines 2 Apr 07

I am very interested what bone density is, can anybody tell me what it is. Is it a medical exam like xray, ultrasound. What can you learn about it. What can it tell you about your bones?
