Surprisingly, the local general practice doc used a code of 'broken back' for the DXA scan; so we were a little worried that the scan would have the neck (which is our interest). I really didn't pay much attention to the other parts, but the hip-neck number was -0.9.
TBI has had Steve's results for over a week, so we are helpful that we'll hear from them soon.
Steve wants to quit the gabapentin because of the possible kidney failure side effect. He's weened himself down to three a day; so he's in a lot of pain.
We have very impatient customers so we don't want to do the same and call TBI, but it's hard to wait...
