I don't know what crosslaps is. What I can tell you is that hormone deficiencies increase bone density problems. It has be found recently that adult thal patients commonly have growth hormone deficiencies, which not only weakens your bones but can cause heart damage and affect your cholesterol. You need to have all your hormones checked yearly. You should also have your vitamin D levels checked if you are having bone problems. I am speaking from experience.
