Default re osteoporosis

I was put on daily subcutaneous injectable Forteo supposedly for 24 months. I think I may have actually used it correctly for 9 months and up to 15 months not daily but it had such a plastic like odor to it that it would make me ill to smell it so my PCP said to hold my nose while injecting myself .. ummyeahh.. so anyway it got where I was so nauseated before and after the injection I just stopped. I Know this isn't so but I kept thinking it smelled like rat poisening even tho I don't know what that smells like!

I've yet to report my noncompliance to my Rheumatologist (prescribing doctor) altho I did to my PCP who didn't really care when I told her that.

I'm about 6 months late to get my BMD testing. Everything got thrown off when I went to Fla when Dad was in the hosp. and passed away and I had to take care of the estate solo.

One of these days I'll get back on track with this and I'll inquire about testosterone as well.
