Men have estrogen too, right? I wonder if this contributes to osteoporisis.

Well, at minimum, I have MGUS unless the first blood reading was wrong. I'd really like a full-body MRI to determine my status; this would check into my sometimes horrible hip pain (worse than back), determine the extent of osteoporosis and bone damage, and how my back's doing.

Unfortunately, this is a merely 3 hour MRI test and I cannot imagine the price. So I'm trying to see if the City of Hope would accept my insurance in full or somewhere in India.

Most definitely I need the door open to fusion as I need to work and won't be able to if munching Oxycontin, etc.

Glad your autofusion helps you M.

Chow, Allan
