Alendronic Acid. Making my own choices.
Just an offload really: I woke up today (AA day) and decided not to take it. I’ve just been reading previous posts on here and ive found it pretty scary to read that once stopping taking it, it can stay in your system for 10 yrs. That’s frightening stuff. I was diagnosed over the phone withPMR

tooth extraction
I came off of alendronic acid over 7 years ago and now need a tooth extracted. Has anyone had this done that long after treatment and had any problems? My dentist is referring me to the hospital to have it extracted, but I am concerned it may be too risky.

Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
If you develop CIPN during chemotherapy, and it becomes permanent, can you subsequently find it has progressed to another site some years after the original diagnosis? I finished 6 cycles of Docetaxel in October 2019. Once the stabbing pains and feeling of being electrocuted had worn off, I was left

Change of medication or stay with existing regime?
I have been diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis/axial and peripheral spondlyarthritis seems to vary. I've been taking COSENTYX 300 for about 3 years, plus MTX currently 15mg. This was working well at the beginning of the year. I started on Alendronic acid in Feb and had a big flare. Stopped Alendronic

root canal work while on zoledronic acid infusions
I have 6 monthly dental checkups, and for years all has been well. I had my first zoledronic acid infusion 28th December 2023. My last dental checkup was in March. A week ago I started getting intermittent pains in the right side of my jaw, both bottom and top. GP ruled out PMR and recommended I visit

Hi, this is my story
I broke my foot following a fall off a high kerb in August 2021 and should have been referred for a DEXA scan by the minor injuries unit who treated this, but wasn't until I asked my GP for one, following a tip off from a friend who knew that that is NHS guidance. Following the DEXA scan and recommendation

Alendronic acid
Do you really need to keep taking those tablets when your managing to reduce your pred successfully? I must admit I don't tend to forget sometimes. Has anyone stopped taking them?
