Skeletal Disease Blog

Dear Mom,

I've been wanting to tell you this some quite some time now but I didn't want you to worry. So I thought I'd write you a letter instead. This is what happened, I went to my Doctor last week to because i was having very uncomfortable pains in my bones. So he ran some tests, and one of them showed a high calcium count. Most people would think this is good, but the calcium, was in my blood, not my bones. I was then sent for a Bone Density, which showed I had Severe Osteoporosis. My doctor insisted I let you and the family know to see if I have a family history of it, but i didn't think it would've made a difference anyways.That one diagnosis has changed my life, as it is a disease that takes over your Endocrine System.
