In comparing osteoporosis, von Recklinghausen ds of bone, Osteomalacia, Pagets ds of bone -The Calcium is increased only in Von Recklinghausen ds of bone.The Alk phos is increased in most but markedly increased in Pagets ds of bone.
Mani thats is a great irony or paradoxical affect. You have decreased bone mass but interestingly normal Ca and Phosphate.

* Osteoporosis is not only part of normal aging, can be caused by
Glucocorticoids and Heparin

does it cause osteoporosis in a baby of a mother who has been taking warfarin(which I'm aware of) or it also causes in adults taking it chronically?
