New member, recently started on Alendronic Acid 70mg
Hi everyone, following a recent chest ct scan (for asthma) I’ve been told I have a slight fracture in one of my vertebrae and showing signs of osteoporosis. My Gp put me on AA 70mg straight away and Advil-D3. I was sent for a dexa scan last week and await the results. In the meantime, my right hip,

L1 = -3.0, L2 = -2.5 Have been prescribed Alendronic Acid but I am really concerned about taking it. Need advice/shared experience.
In May 2020 I had a dexa scan which showed L1 and L2 vertebrae as -2.0 and -2.2 respectively. After starting on 15mg prednisolone in August 2020 and reduced to 7.5mg in October I asked my rheumatologist if I could have another dexa scan. My mother had osteoporosis as a result of being on steroids,

First Aid in the Workplace
not sure if anyone can help with this question. You can have a DNR put on your hospital records, but can you do the same in your workplace?? Just having a debate with my hubby, talking about "what if.." scenarios. Are first aiders obligated to perform CPR on you?

Anyone with IBS taking alendronic acid for osteoporosis?
Hello, I was diagnosed with IBS about 2 years ago and managed to get it under control last year by following the Low Fodmap diet. However due to some unnecessary antibiotics given to me over the phone by a GP suspecting I had diverticulitis it has all flared up again. I started Symprove 2 weeks ago and

Infusions of Osteoporosis Medication
I have had a dexa scan which has shown up Osteoporosis and as I have had difficulties with Alendronic Acid tablets in the past, I think the endocrinologist intends to offer me some kind of infusions. I keep reading on here about reactions to them. Could someone please enlighten me about this treatment

New to PMR & Predisnolone
Hi very interesting reading different experiences. I have just been diagnosed with PMR & started Preds today I was told to take in the morning as it keeps you awake at night? I have also been prescribed Alendronic Acid, Lansoprazole & Calcichew+D3. This seems a lot of meds but hoping it works, I am so

Parathyroid Hormone Treatment for Osteoporosis
I have quite severe osteoporosis and the hospital consultant has recommended I start a 2 year course of daily Teriparatide injections, which I understand is parathyroid hormone. Does anyone have experience of this? I have already had an L2 compression fracture. This seems a better alternative to zoledronic

What (may have) helped me conceive?
Hi all, I'm now pregnant (cant believe im writing that!) And I wanted to share some of the things I did and supplements I took whilst TTC. Of course, I can't say whether any of these actually worked or helped but I know that when I was TTC I really appreciated hearing from others what they were doing

really long periods, heavy bleeding even though on the pill
As the title suggests, I've been having really long periods (see: 1+ months), spotting, really heavy bleeding at times, painful cramps and stabbing pains in my vagina, and fatigue. I'm on the POP pill without break so I shouldn't be having any periods at all but since last October they've been really

When do you give up....
On a supplement! I completely understand these things take time. However, my father is willing to trial supplements that have NO effect, but he feels something we added is contributing to fatigue and difficulty speaking in the last several days What we have started so far (with 2 day gap in between)

(New here!) Does endometriosis mean daily pain?
Hi, I am 19 years old and I've been suffering with severe period pain for about 6 years. I've been sick and almost fainted countless times. Went to my GP last year and was given mefenamic acid, which did nothing even when taken with painkillers. Went back to GP and was put on the pill. Still during pill

Parasympathetic Nervous System - Vagus Nerve
As many of you know along with AF I suffer from a relatively rare (we think?) condition called Myasthenia gravis which is a neuro muscular condition which most people haven’t heard of but has a similar affect to MS but through a different mechanism. For over 7 years I have been chasing missing bits

Rheumatology appt
Thought I would update you lovely people . . . I had an urgent referral to rheumatology today after being put on 40 mgs of Pred ... going through my notes, experiences etc the doctor has come to the conclusion that I have Osteoarthritis of the spine rather than PMR - I think he's probably right given

Next step in getting answers?
Hi all, I've had problems with pelvic pain, horrendous cramping, painful sex etc for a year now, over the last 6 months I've had various tests. My ultrasounds suggested polycystic ovaries but my blood tests have come back as normal. I was prescribed mefenamic acid in Feb but it honestly doesn't do much

Alpha Lipoic Acid and anti-Coagulants
I am on Apixaban, Statins and blood pressure tablets. I suffer with thoracic back pain which when it flares is awful, a mixture of muscle and nerve pain. I am only able to take paracetamol which is useless in my case. I have also been advised by the G.P. and pharmacist that I should try Amitriptyline
