Hi, my mom (67) was diagnosed with Osteo one year ago but does not want to take any medication. Her doctor recommended Fosamax. What have been your experiences with it? Positive and negative.
Or with Actonel, Boniva, Reclast? Or something else?
I want to try to help her find a treatment to prevent her from having a fracture or further bone loss.
I had chills that were unreal, some vomiting, felt very weak like I would easily black out, fatigue overall I was MISERABLE and scared for 24 hours. I felt somewhat disoriented. I am really hesitant to try again. Others?
thank for your information, I appreciate it!
I have a large hietal hernia in my esophagus that my GI Dr worries is irriitated by the Fosamax.
I also have concern about Osteonecrosis from ongoing dental procedures. My PCP notes that the med
no longer seems effective and would like me to see a specialist for future osteosporosis treatment. What
kind of doctor would be most effective and appropriate for me to see. PCP mentioned endocrinologist but I
am thinking rheumatologist.
Your advice would be much appreciated.
I took Fosomax infusions for 1 yr. Took myself off it due to severe joint pain, lack of energy, weight gain. Looking back I was depressed, which totally was not the real me. So great now being off⦠read more
Rene, thatβs a really good start. We feel so much
better when we are part of the solution π
Has anyone used this infusion? And did you experience any side effects?
Hugs to all my friends. π Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to. πππ
My Rheumatologist suggested I would go on Prolia every 6mo. After Reading The warnings for this medication.
I am really not convinced to be on this medication. I am 70 years old and have had osteoporosis for many years
Hi Maureen would like to know how it goes
I pray that it will be a good report.Have a good day

So I needed to discontinue Fosamax due to severe heartburn/chest pain 24/7. It is now 3 months and I am back to normal. They now want me to do Reclast infusion. I am looking for anyone taking Reclast and knowing your experience. Thanks!
I had no problem with it and it's once a year by iv I have no side effects from it either
I'm 75 years old. My weight is 109. My untreated osteoporosis is monumental. Any suggestions or is 2 late?. Thank you β€οΈ so much for any response
