I got into a car crash and went to the ER to get an X-ray done to make sure nothing was off, not this was a week after the crash. Anyways hurt like a bitch and after awhile of waiting the X-ray gets done and the tech just kinda looks at it for a minute, turns to me and says "Two bits of good news, your knee is just inflamed and swollen no breaks, also Ive been doing this for awhile and your bone density is absurd" which is how I found out that I'm a freak of nature who has borderline unbreakable bones. Explains why I struggle to swim in fresh water so much.
I have this exact same anomaly, I learned about it from a dexa scan.
Yeah it's not too uncommon as I understand just not the norm. Though with me being so short it does give me the joke that evolution is trying to reinvent Neanderthals and I'm it's Alpha version.
Basically they told me that I was in the top 1% of their data collection efforts And I want to say he said something about it being two standard deviations off normal.
Do you have claws?
Sadly no. But I am five foot five, can go berserk, and like retro motorcycles. Though I think Wolverine is more of a Harley guy rather than a Honda and Enfield guy.
