Spinal compression
I have recently sadly sustained another spinal compression which is really painful this time. Not helped by the fact it has taken my doctors so long to sort out medication for me. I had my first in August last year and I’ve still not started on any programme after failing to get along with alendronic

Advice and help please
Hi all, my first post here - I'm 47 and suffering with extremely heavy periods, flooding, passing big clots etc. Just had an ultrasound and transvaginal probe which has shown everything is normal. I know I should be pleased but still don't have any answers as to what is causing this. I've been taking

Zoledronic acid infusion - side effects sound horrendous. Any advice?
Hi folks, My osteoporosis consultant has recommended an intravenous infusion of Zolendronic acid, as I can't stomach the Alendronic acid tablets. My last DEXA scan was January 2019 - the numbers I can't remember but they were at a low level yet not low enough for treatment. Consultant says they are

IV infusion
Hi all, well I’ve been on Alendronic Acid for osteoporosis for 4 months now and overall have tolerated it well with the odd few side effects, the most annoying being itchy skin but not half as bad as I thought it would be. However, my consultant has recently informed me that it’s not being absorbed as

Zometa
I'm having oral surgery next Thursday on a bone in my jaw do to advanced cancer. Anthem refused to pay for it, saying it is a dental thing. Some cancer patients whose cancer has spread to the bones receive regular infusions of a bone-modifying drug, such as zoledronic acid (Zometa) May have side affects

Help for a friend with corticobasal degeneration.
Dear forum friends: I have a friend who has been diagnosed with corticobasal degeneration. I can't find much specific information about this atypical parkinsonism. Except for Dr. Costantini's reference in the famous interview (number 30) or the comments on medical cannabis oil, I can't find any information

Risendronate versus Alendronic Acid
I have been on AA for 20 months now and the side effects are getting worse. Eyes, headaches, tiredness and brain fog. My Doctor suggests I try Risendronate instead. Has any one any info or advice they can give me. Is it worth a try?

Abdominal pain
Hi everyone, I had a horrible experience yesterday and wondered whether it could have had anything to do with pred (now on 11mg having started on 15 on 10th March this year) or with the alendronic acid (70ng) I take each Saturday or even the lansoprazoke (30mg) I take daily? I suddenly developed an

Severe Period Pain but no diagnosis
Hi, I haven’t yet been diagnosed with anything - endometriosis etc… but I joined this forum to see if it’s worth pushing for it to be investigated? I’m only 18 but I have had several trouble with my period since I was 9, to the point where I am curled up on the floor in agony, or where I’m shaking badly

Tranexamic acid - any advice?
In short, I have endo & adeno and am currently treatment free whilst waiting for a hysterectomy (I'm 45). My periods are pretty heavy and painful and a doctor has suggested trying Tranexamic acid for a few months. I just wondered if anyone else has tried this in a similar situation and did it work? Thanks

Have I made the wrong decision?
I had a lap in 2016 which was negative for Endo. I was diagnosed with IBS. I have since suffered reoccurring large cysts and a great deal of pain. In May 2021 I was hospitalised and advised by two gynae DRs that they believed I did have Endo and that it was missed. I’ve been off work since, can’t drive

Ever feel like you can't win?
Bad day at work. I'm burned out at my job, and have been seriously struggling with it for at least two years. You may ask, why don't I find something else? Valid question. I don't have skills to get anything else meaningful outside of something like retail/cashier. My mental and emotional health cannot

Supplements -so much information
Hi all I know that we need to take vitamin D as those of us who are light sensitive and stay out of the sun need this, however there is also lots of other suggestions on the internet. I do have inflammatory arthritus and many sites suggest turmeric, other sites suggest fish oil and omega 3. So, for
