Is it really necessary to take Alendronic Acid with these results?
I am 72 years old and have been diagnosed with osteoporosis/osteoporotic (Iam not sure which as the report refers to both). The results of my tests are as follows:- Indication: PTH Risk Factor: Excess alcohol, fractured wrist age 64, maternal hip fracture, Secondary Osteoporosis (PTH) Medication

Alendronic Acid
I wondered if there is a suggestion on how long one should take Alendronic Acid. I started when i was about 64 ( I am now 79). I worked as a nurse in the interventional Radiology department and when the new dexa scan arrived all females working were able to have a scan to give a little more experience

Alendronic Acid
When I saw a new rhuemy yesterday she mentioned Alendronic Acid. I had not heard of it. I take Calcium D3 because a DXA scan showed osteopenia in my lower back. Would Alendronic Acid be helpful with Calcium D3 or instead of it?

R-alpha Lipoic Acid
I read in the Autumn 2023 ME Association magazine that R-Alpha Lipoic Acid could be helpful for someone with ME. I use Methotrexate for my RA. Has anyone used this supplement with Methotrexate?

Help! Raised serum organic phosphate levels
Hello everyone... A month ago I posted after being concerned about a raised organic serum level. 1.89. After a change of diet and a retest there is no significant difference it’s now 1.84. The normal range is 1.40. All other bone profile and renal rests are fine as is the parathyroid level. I know

Confused about BCAAs
I don’t understand the results of studies on branched chain amino acids and cirrhosis. There seems to be conflicting data. Has anyone tried taking BCAAs to build muscle and can you shed some light on the subject?

Low FT4, Normal TSH, Fluctuating FT3
Hi everyone, Would massively appreciate some advice as my GP & Endocrinologist are not giving me answers to why my Thyroid has been underactive. All they have done is say I should take Levothyroxine 25mg. Before I do I want to try create a holistic treatment plan alongside the medication & to do that

Dental work
I have recently had my 2nd alendronic acid infusion and so far so good! However I am due to have some dental work in November, which could involve extraction. When I went for my last infusion I was told not to have any work done for a while after this. I have spoken to the dentist who still wants me

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

Omnivore vs vegetarian vs vegan diet
Hi everyone, I just wanted to ask what your thoughts are with regards to which diet is better for PWP. My mum is a PWP and my dad has noticed her symptoms are aggravated if she eats meats and improves if she doesn’t. He is a vegan so I’m not sure if there is a little bit of bias there. I myself am
