My doctor gave me Ursodiol 500 mg and propranolol 10 mg. If I take 500 mg it will give me watery diarrhea. When I take 250 mg it is ok for several doses. It will get to the point of not feeling well, unablre to function very well and I get very mean which isn't my personally. So, I stop taking the

Advice about plan of treatment
I am 67, was diagnosed with PMR 2 weeks ago after 4 weeks of symptoms (stiffness and pain in neck, arms, shoulders, couldn't raise arms above shoulders, immense tiredness etc). Initial GP contact was excellent - he identified the problem, blood tests same day, consult 2 days later to confirm diagnosis

I have osteoporosis and I took Fosamax for a while and then lost 6 teeth! I stopped taking it a while ago, but my back is giving me grief now. I am taking calcium and Vitamin D, but I need to find out whether there are any alternatives to alendronic acid.

Pain Medication after Laparoscopy
Hi all, Can anyone offer advice on which medication they used after surgery for pain management? Due to my other medical issues I can’t take any NSIADS including: ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac, celecoxib, mefenamic acid, etoricoxib & indomethacin. I normally take just cocodamol and rest when

GP has prescribed Alendronic Acid 70mg
Hi all My Dad’s GP has prescribed Alendronic Acid 70mg tablets without explaining why. My Dad is now on Adcal -D3 1x daily, 9mg Prednisolone daily and 1x weekly Alendronic Acid. Is it normal to be prescribed Alendronic Acid? Also, how far apart should this be taken from Pred? Thanks Lindsay

bisphosphonates and dizziness
I started taking alendronate (70mg once a week) about 10 weeks ago. I was very dubious about it but did lots of research and ultimately decided to give it a go having read accounts from people who are housebound/ in constant pain due to their osteoporosis. Initially I seemed to be tolerating it well.

Do I need to take Alendronate?
Hi everyone, I Got the results of my DEXA bone scan, and I'm not sure if I need to be on Alendronate. (My rheumy prescribed it to me before these results came in, just saying "since you're going to be on steroids long term you need it.") Can someone tell me if the numbers below warrant me being on
