Had a health scare in the post.

I opened a letter from my gp practice this morning, & it said that I was being offered vitamin D & calcium supplements having been diagnosed with osteoporosis. This really shocked me because I had no idea that I`d had such a diagnosis, so I went to the health centre & was lucky enough to get seen this afternoon. The doctor I saw said he didn`t know why I`d been sent the letter because they had no idea if I had any bone problems or not. I asked him to refer me for a bone scan, & he did. I`m just relieved that it`s been sorted out for the time being. All I have to do now is have the scan, & wait for the results

Thank you for your support. I`m praying that my scan comes back ok, because I`m already learning how to deal with thyroid issues, I really don`t need another health problem right now!

Gosh how scary for you although some Doctors can make mistakes.

Lets hope the scan appointment is soon to stop the anxiety of waiting.

Good Luck
