Started #Zoladex to treat uterine #Polyps & bleeding/spotting is not stopping!!!
Guys I’m really hoping you can help or offer insight. I started experiencing irregular bleeding after taking progesterone only birth control pills. I continued onto the next pack and I didn’t stop bleeding. Dr gave me Tranexamic Acid and it stopped it for a while and continued taking pill every day

Still am uncomfortable with taking it and eventually being able to come off of it. Any input/experiences with this med will be highly

GP disagrees with diagnosis of osteoporosis
I had a Dexa scan 2 weeks ago and the lady who did the scan told me I had osteoporosis and gave me a leaflet about it and an information sheet about Alendronic acid. She said GP would contact me when he got the results to start me on AA. Last week I got a text from GP saying “your bone thickness is

Hi Until December last I was taking 40 mg iron bisglycinate with orange juice every two days. Since this had little impact on my RLS I increased the iron dose to 40mg every day from December until now. As yet I have noticed little change to my RLS symptoms. A blood test this month showed my ferritin

Zolendronic Acid Infusions
I know this treatment is for osteoporosis and not PMR but I’ve been offered this treatment as I’m over 65 and I’m on the cusp of being osteopenic and my bone fracture score is now just above 10.. Recently my rheumy said that the results of my dexascan were some of the best he had seen for someone on

After 25 days back on prednisone...
Thank you to all who advised on my previous post. I have almost completed the first month back on 20mg day of prednisone. The effect was immediate, pain gone, stiffness gone, fatigue better, am motivated and catching up with chores I had neglected for months. I feel more positive now, even started

Alendronate(Fosamax) total lifetime years
I am a 74 year old woman with osteoporosis. I have taken 1 prolia shot 6 months ago and am scheduled for the second shot Oct. 10. I don't wish to continue on Prolia because I believe it is affecting my immune system. I can't take zoledronic acid because of kidney disease (CKD3a). Alendronate weekly

PPIs?
Just wondering how many are taking a PPI if they are taking Pred and alendronic acid? I have not taken any Omeprazole so far and my stomach has been fine but for the first time last night I had painful, burning reflux and I can still feel the after effects today so am not eating very much. This is

Attempting to transition off PROLIA…
I’m feeling quite overwhelmed with the volumes of great information. I do appreciation as I got none of this from doctors I’m conflicted more than ever on how to get off PROLIA without losing bone strength & avoiding potential side effects of various Busphosphonates: AA, Zoledronic acid, Actonel.

A tooth with a life of it's own!
Hi, all. I wrote in several months ago about a painful tooth. My dentist couldn't find anything wrong with it. He finally referred me to an endodontist, and he did a root canal. Found several issues. Would have been nice if that had been the end of it, but no! The pain would not go away, and I

Supplements to reduce glutamate
I was inspired by Widebody's comments on taurine and glycine to look into supplements that reduce glutamate. I found the following on an autism website that I cannot vouch for, but here is the list: (those of us taking gabapentin, pregabalin, horizont are taking medicine that is reducing brain glutamate
