So you could and did break a bone just by stepping wrong ? What caused your bones to be that weak?

i did break bones just stepping on a rock once and again on a curb ..i didnt fall just stepped wrong i guess..they ankle i turned it ..i have no idea why they were weak..broke a toe twice..

Well, I know i have arthritis. collapsed bones with nerve encroachment. Do I still need the test ? Fell and broke my hip couple winters ago But Tom fell and broke his wrist (good hand) and I walked around with a hair line crack I guess it what they called it not knowing til it had healed because I was taking care of him.

May I ask your age Danna ? I remember the drs. telling my mom she could be just standing looking out the door and a bone in her back could break. I guess it runs in the family. I had a bone density 20 yrs. ago that said I had osteopenia ?

67 granny..but all bones except my wrist were broken when i was younger..

You must have terrible bones ! I had both my legs in what they called a split cast from jumping off a bridge into a dry creek bed. Drug myself home by my elbows. That was a long trip.
