Thanks Paula. My bone density is low too, but getting better. I take Evista. This is just a routine test to see how I am doing. Hopefully OK, I'll find out in a week or so.
Re the thing on my back. It turned out to be an encapsulated cyst rather than a boil - which is not as painful. However, it will have to be surgically removed (just in the office). She injected it with cortisone today
to reduce the inflammation and I have to take antibiotics for a week also. All the inflammation has to be gone when they remove it or they can't get it all and it will come back. I don't want that, for sure!
