The Rare Good MS News Report: My DXA Surprise

In this episode of The Just MS Show, I share two moments that define the push-pull of life with MS: a recent fall (my “fish out of water” moment) and the unexpectedly positive results from my annual DXA (DEXA) bone density scan, which I do because of prior high-dose steroid treatments. I walk through the scan process, the follow-up with my doctor, and why this result felt rare—and important. I also reflect on what may be helping: consistent, nutrient-focused eating and tailored, weight-bearing work (including squat sets tied to daily transfers, gym resistance, and pool time). It’s a small win in a year when mobility has been tougher—and a prompt to double down on what’s working.

Note: Personal experience only; not medical advice.
