Hi all, I was told yesterday that my 8th or 9th can't remember vertebrae and my forearm have osteopinea. What is the difference between osteopinea and osteoporosis? I think he said I had one in the arm and something different in the spine. My doctor is putting me on Miacalcin. Not sure if I spelled it correctly. He said my results were not terrible and why subject me to the heavy duty pills with side effects. This is a nasal spray. Anyone familiar with this? Thank you for any info you may have.
