Bone density & Hep C

During the course of the recent trial that I participated in, there were 2 bone densities performed. (I'm not sure, but I may have a 3rd one?).    Between the first one, baseline, pre-treatment and the 2nd one after 29 days of treatments, there was a slight decrease in bone density.  I don't know if this is anything that some of you may want to keep track of, but I thought that it might be worth mentioning to you, if you have other risk factors for osteoporosis.

I found this article:

Hi, I was wondering about that. During a transplant evalution they do a bone density. Who knows....what don't they do.

          Hey, I didn't get a chance to tell you how sorry I am that your last tx didn't work out.  What a bummer.....Am thinking about you,     -Libby
