The Correct Answer is B
Osteomalacia: diffuse skeletal pain, proximal muscle weakness, bone tenderness, and hypotonia with preservation of brisk reflexes
Lab: slight hypocalcemia, hypophosphatemia, elevated ALP, low-normal urinary calcium excretion, elevated level of PTH. Serum levels of 25-OH-D are often depressed.
X-ray: diffuse osteopenia; the only specific finding is the pseudofracture (Looser's zone).
