Gordon Glidden/tested for Osteoporosis - "I think of the older female who's bent over, who's walking down the street or something like that." Dr. Howard Dworkin/Beaumont Nuclear Medicine Chief - "There are a significant number of males in the United States that have Osteoporosis." In fact, 20-percent of all Osteoporosis patients are men. Most of those cases can be traced to a list of risk factors, including steroid use, heredity, excessive alcohol intake, smoking, vitamin-d deficiency, and testosterone deficiency.

No, not until this particular instance." Gordon Glidden went to Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak for a bone density scan. this will be used as a baseline. He will be re-checked every three to four years to make sure his bones remain strong. Gordon Glidden - "It was a procedure just like an x-ray.
