You're right, I just looked at the papers and they said " Bone Density

of the Lumbar spine is Osteopenia.... " and " Bone Density at the femoral

neck is consistent with Osteoporosis.. "

You being correct doesn't excuse that song going through my head like a

broken record LOL

[ ] Femoral neck - Rick & Cary

Rick and Cary, I believe it's the femoral neck that's in question here.

It's commonly affected by prednisone. Here's an illustration:

The leg bone's connected to the hip bone ... you know the song!

Rick and Cary, if the song leaves your heads, you can restart the whole

nightmare by going here (imagine that I am playing the piano for you):

NIEHS

Lyrics and music for kids

" Dry Bones (or Skeleton Bones) " :

I see that I left out the knee and thigh!

" With the leg bone connected

to the knee bone,

and the knee bone connected

to the thigh bone,

and the thigh bone connected

to the hip bone.

Oh mercy how they scare! "

I'll tell you where to go!
