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

Supplements - Dangerous, Essential or Useless?
Wizard recently made an interesting post on the "drive to minimize supplementation" that I wanted to respond to in-depth. The post: https://healthunlocked.com/pasoc/posts/150006558/the-drive-to-reduce-minimize-supplementation I decided a long form response would be better, thus my separate post here.

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

Health News: Nourishment for Eyes
When my Mom was 6, an Alsatian (German Shepherd) dog jumped up on her, jarring her head round to look, left her with a cast in her right eye. Known as strabismus, the ancient Greek for squinting. More accurately, it means the affected eye can’t really focus and can thus appear as a cross-eye. Off her

Goat whey, casein, IGF-1 etc. - Do they promote or slow cancer growth?
I've been trying for many years to decide whether to take a protein powder supplement to help maintain muscle mass. Since I started on ADT in 2016, I've lost 30 pounds. I don't know how much is due to the ADT, and how much is due to my diet. I'm 172 pounds now. I was muscular and athletic at 202,

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.
