After Evenity
I finished 11 months of Evenity and went onto very low dose Actonel (5 mg x 2 a week) which caused non stop bad migraine and achiness and aching teeth, I came off and was given Raloxifene. Will this be strong enough to keep the gains? Are the other biphsphonates the same as Actonel in side effects,

I asked ChatGPT about Fosamax. How does the medication Fosamax fake your DEXA score?
This was the reply. Fosamax (alendronate) is a bisphosphonate medication used to treat and prevent osteoporosis. It works by inhibiting bone resorption, which is the process where bone is broken down and its minerals are released into the bloodstream. Here’s how Fosamax can influence Dexa (Dual-energy

Actonel low dose and side effects
I have just come off Evenity and trying low dose Actonel to keep the gains, (building up hopefully) but at the moment 10 mg a week. I am suffering zig zag horrible migraine (have had 3 of those in the last 2 weeks on Actonel) but it could be withdrawal from the Evenity, not sure. Has anyone done low

Am I an "outlier"?
Simply wanted to report on what happened after I stopped taking Prednisone. I was diagnosed with PMR in August, 2022 and put on 13 mg of prednisone daily and 70mg of Fosamax, once weekly (to counter the bone loss associated with prednisone), In the fall of 2023, I finally got down to 1mg of prednisone

Fosamax phobia
I have thinning of the femoral neck -2.8 and the recommended treatment for my osteoporosis is either Fosamax or Antonel. Frankly, I have been hesitant to treat this condition. In reviewing the side effects, both appear to have adverse effects on the G.I. System. I already suffer with irritable bowel

Very Exciting News!
I was diagnosed with osteoporosis one year ago: lumbar spine -4.6, hip -3.3, -3 5 respectively. Today--at my request--I had a follow-up. I have basically been pharmaceutical drug-free, though, I did take about 9 doses of Fosamax at two different times, the last being in September. For reference, google

Calcium D3 Supplements
Are any of you diagnosed with Osteoporosis taking supplements, Calcium, D3, K, etc. even though blood tests show normal range? I have been advised it is not necessary to take supplements if blood tests normal. Too much Calcium may increase risk of other health issues. My PCP advises taking multivitamin
