Thanks for your response, A.A.

No, I'm not osteoporotic or osteopenic that I know of. I haven't had a bone density scan since I had a baseline one done years ago for a baseline, long before I was diagnosed.

The study is to see whether adjuvant use of bisphosponates decreases rate of breast cancer metasticizing to bones and if so, which of three bisphosponates works best.

It is Protocol No. S0307 WIRB Protocaol #20060126
Sponsored by the National Cancer Institute.

I will be one of thousands of participants nationwide.
