Update on time change pred

[Uglow]

Hi all I changed my pred time from am to pm. Fuzzy head is better not completely gone but only on day 2. My back is killing me but has been on and off. Ill chat to Gp this week. Waiting on dexa results and spine X-rays.

I don’t want to take the one a week pill for bones unless necessary but apparently i have to see dentist to see if I have good flow to gums! I hate the dentist 😂 update to follow thanks all.

Good luck with your DEXA Scan results. Mine were good following unpleasant pressure to take Alendronic Acid, I was so relieved. I haven’t heard of the flow to the gums check at the dentist. Is this related to bone health?

Lol I assume I’ll let you all know.

It is probably to be sure that the gums are healthy. Scrupulous mouth hygiene is crucial with bisphosphonates - the primary reason for loss of teeth is gum disease and it is a good idea to start from a good place.

It’s pretty exemplary then.
