regardless of your age and/or overall health, it is a wise idea to request a bone density and bone mineral scan. I have had three within the past 10 years and am glad to report that some of my loss has been reversed. After my initial scan, I took Fosamax, but I couldn't endure the side effects. Since then, I have focused on strength training, eating plenty of fruits and vegetables and taking all natural, plant based supplements through Standrad Process. I too was a WC case and was cautioned about using my own insurance for procedure related to my spine that WC wouldn't cover. I did pay for some of my own water therapy and chiropractic care because it was vital to my progress and pain management.
