Experience with Actonel or Fosamax

Has anyone experience taking Actonel or Fosamax [u]without[/u] esophageal symptoms? Did you take it daily, weekly or monthly? Also, what improvement has your DEXA scan shown? My physician says she has just started taking Actonel and is encouraging me to do so. I am not inclined to follow this advice

Starting Reclast

Hello, I am 69 and have had osteoporosis for many years. My spine numbers were particularly bad the last two DEXAs (-3.8 and -3.9) and I did have a mild fragility fracture in my upper back several months ago. It never really hurt much, but it was confirmed with an MRI. Because of that, I have agreed

First dose of Actonel

I took my first dose of Actonel this morning, 35mg. I have had diarrhea since an hour after taking it. Will this pass as I get used to it?

Has anyone had sacral ala (pelvic) insufficiency fracture while on Prolia and/or a bisphosphonate?

I've been on Actonel 35mg weekly for the past 18 months as a relay drug to discontinue Prolia without fracturing. Two weeks ago I woke up coughing violently at the end of a week in bed with bronchitis, and suddenly experienced a severe stabbing pain in my left rear pelvic bone (one of the two little

Help and Opinions on Prolia for Osteoporosis

After breaking 3 ribs for no reason and my bone density much worse, the rheumatologist, endocrinologist and GP felt Prolia may be the next step. There is no way to know what caused the ribs to break. I have taken Actonel, Boniva, Forteo and Fosamax already. I really did not want to consider this because

Another Month ........ Another Fracture!🙄

I hope everyone is as well as can be expected? (Vain hope probably, but worth a try)!😉🤞Fingers also crossed for some nice bank holiday sunshine for everyone! (Cloudy here today). I posted in February about how I'd very stupidly fallen down a couple of stairs and suffered a periprosthetic femur fracture
