Alendronic acid

Prednisone & Bone loss
I have been taking Prednisone and Abiraterone for about 1 year. I just had a bone density scan and am told I now have osteoporosis. From what I read, it's a side effect of Prednisone. Any feedback on what the lowest useful dose can be of Prednisone? I.e., They are proposing I take > "initiate Alendronate

Is this normal when you start taking Ursodiol?
I was diagnosed February 16, 2020 with Stage 2 PBC. I have so many questions and would like to connect with someone in Virginia if possible to educate myself more with the symptoms. I started URSODIOL 500 mgs last week to get me started and I’ve felt so tired, nauseous, weak and vomiting. My joints are

Suppliments in the 2ww
Hey giris, i hope you are all having a good day so far. As you know im 1 day post transfer, and was wondering which of my suppliments i should stop taking 🤔. I thought probably nac and alpha lipoic acid but after looking it up they are both very beneficial during pregnancy and nac can reduce the risk

On the “horns of a dilemma” re Alendronic Acid 😳
Your thoughts/ experience would be welcome please. My situation: diagnosed with PMR Dec2019. Pred dose 15, increased to 17.5 for a couple of weeks, now symptoms controlled at 15 hoping to decrease to 13.5 next week. Blood tests also indicated I am pre-diabetic, just overweight with BMI 26. Now signed

Advice please?
Hi, I was told I had osteoporosis in May 2018. My scores were: Femur neck: T score -1.1, Z score -0.1 Spine: T score -2.5 Z score -1.4 Looking at the charts, my interpretation is that my hip is just in the osteopenia range and my spine just in the osteoporosis range. If it hadn't been that I started

Wit's end! Switch Levo brands, try NDT again, be patient with different dosage?
Dear wise and helpful friends, On 13 Dec. my labs were the best ever and on 31 Jan. they changed again, with TSH too high etc. I’m putting them next to each other: TSH: 4.80 -- range is 0.20 – 5.00 -- then TSH : 5.99 - FT3: 4.10 – range is 1.8 – 4,5 -- then FT3: 5,12 FT4: 10.01 – range is 7.0

This is my 4th day following zolendronic acid infusion and I thought I would share how this has been for me. I was very resistant to having further treatment having stopped taking alendronic acid due to side effects. However, after recent DEXA scan showed fracture in T9 and after much discussion I
