Does your doctor test your PTH?  Many don't, and without that it is difficult to say that your labs are "fine".  

Clearly there is something wrong, and it is NOT just some excess skin!

Parathyroid.  It, in combination with the serum calcium level tells you whether your body is getting enough calcium or whether it is pulling calcium from your bones into your blood.

Well, the knee replacement probably put some restrictions on you being on top.  Both mine are replacements.  How about doggie with a pillow under our chest and you leaning forward?  Just sayin...

I am sorry but surely you are finding the humor in this...having to tell the insurance company...keep your humor in tact.  Seriously. I would think this would be a serious issue.

Thanks for responding. (and for the tips) yes I do see the humor, but afraid I will have to puncture a  lung to get any help.

If your bones were in good shape I can't imagine how this would happen.   Repeated fractures like this are more of a problem than it just occurring during sex or picking up a sock.

You need comprehensive blood work, because it sounds like there is a lot more going on than excess skin!

My bloodwork is fine, thanks.

You keep repeating your blood work is fine.  I'm not trying to doubt you but I have to ask what blood work did you have done?  Have you actually seen the paper copy?  Unfortunately so many PCPs and surgeons don't run enough labs to know what is going on.  I'll add to MsBatt's comment.....I would bet your Vitamin D3 is low and PTH is high and you're body is leaching calcium from your bones.

Please get copies of your labs and see what was actually drawn, don't take your labs are OK as it's fine.
