I believe they can generally live a long life. The major complications are infections and broken bones. Eventually there will be a time where you might need blood transfusions because the body will lose its ability to make more blood cells (the bone will condense on itself).

I have Adult Type II. My life expectancy is the same as a normal. At 63 I have a lot of bone pain so quality of life is not normal
