Can I just stop AA
hi everyone just a question about AA, is it ok to just stop taking it? I was diagnosed in 2016 with PMR and 18 months later had a dexa scan which showed I had osteoporosis in the lower back. I can’t remember they exact numbers but it was only just in the realms of the lower end so was given Alendronic

Clinical Trial Niraparib or XOFIGO
Good morning, I am new to this forum and am thankful for having found it. I am trying to learn as much as I can about my husband’s diagnosis and pray that we are making the best decisions for his treatments. To this point we have not sought out a 2nd opinion and have wholeheartedly trusted in the treatment

Saw my Oncologist today, not good news.
Those following me know I've had bad luck with pain and treatments, getting pain under control has been a real challenge and last 3 treatments have failed. The Radium 223 saw my PSA rise quickly half way through, he tried Zytiga + Predisolone my PSA initially dropped to 88 in early Nov but by Dec it

More Radium 223 vs EBRT questions
Though this quote is from an old Vogelzang article, it does not seem contradicted by newer studies: "Both EBRT and radium-223 are effective at relieving pain, but both may decrease bone marrow function. Since radium-223 has a documented survival advantage compared with the standard of care, which includes

Do I see a endocrinologist or rheumatologist for osteoporosis?
I was diagnosed with osteoporosis in July 2020. I am confused as to which doctor I should consult for treatment. My primary care doctor wants me to take Fosomax. I want to wait until my heartburn issues are resolved before starting Fosomax, since heartburn is one of its side effects. My primary care

Just attended my yearly rheumatology appointment and saw an SHO rather than consultant (it sounds as if they are busy closing down face to face appointments for the time being and relying on telephone conversations, I think i was one of the last) The main thing was that following the Dexa scan report

How much internal radiation can a guy take?
I have bone mets in both femures and Ischium. I have read about Radium 223 as well as Lu-177 and AC-225 and variations. Can I start taking these radio pharma drugs with abandon without worrying about accumulated radiation? Should I plunge into the genre asap or wait for the best and safest to be

If I'm taking Fosamax should I still be taking my K2 and Calcium?
I've been on Fosamax for the past two months and I've continued to take my K2 and calcium. Is this okay or should I stop the supplement? My last bone scan showed a low score for osteopenia. Thanks
