Well, the results from the second test are in and it's official, I have spinal osteoporosis. The surprise was that I am also developing arthritis in my lower back. This came as a shock as I have not been really suffering any unusual back discomfort.
My doctor has prescribed Actenol and physical therapy so I can really focus in on strengthening by back and ab muscles.
If I were not trying to lose weight, I might have dived nose first into a pint of Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Brownie ice cream. Or Cherry Garcia. Alas, I fought off the urge and maintained some will power. The ice cream would have given me a huge calcium bump today.

I hate "official" news.
Your physical therapy prescription kinda sounds like getting the benefits of a personal trainer though. At least, that's the way I would look at it :)
That is how I plan on looking at the physical therapy. I plan on abs of steel by summer!!
