Missed Alendronic Acid date
Hi I need some advice please. My pharmacy ran out of Alendrotnic Acid last week - apparently it’s nationwide yet they didn’t tell me. It was only when I went to collect another prescription they informed me. I was due to take it last Saturday - so I had to phone my Drs to issue an urgent alternative

Hydroxvchloroquine or Methotrexate
Have new consultant who wants to change my dmard to methotrexate but I am really concerned because I am on blood thinners for past DVTs, have atrial fibrillation and low blood pressure. I was diagnosed with RA in March and saw a consultant who decided the best treatment for me was a high dose of steroids

Good site for vegan nutrition info and some supplements I take
https://veganhealth.org/daily-needs/ For a good B12 source would recommend the 3 natural form supplement here : https://www.sunday.de/en/vitamin-b12/. 500mcg per day is a good safe dosage. You cannot overdose on B12 and although 500mcg seems like a lot, only an estimated 6-7mcg are absorbed of this

Excessive sweating
With Parkinson’s, it’s common for the skin on your face to become very oily, especially on your forehead and on the sides of your nose (this is known as seborrhea). You may also notice that your eyebrows and scalp get oily too, resulting in flaky skin (dandruff). It’s also fairly common to experience

Hello to all, I have been diagnosted with PBC in 2019. I am a good responder to ursodiol. I have to take vitamine D supplements and B12 also. In the past year my MPV is getting lower and lower and I am wondering if this should be à worry ? I am currently at 7,8. Thanks for your comments, Ancolie

Alternatives to Alendronic Acid
I am new here and have recently been diagnosed with osteoporosis and was offered 'Alendronic Acid' but felt it was not right for me. My nutritionist recommended taking 'Bonebalance' which improves bone mineral density and I just wondered if anyone else had tried it and if it works? I would be grateful

Update(My Experience): Day 21 after Circumcision Fully Healed: Fast Healing: Removed my Stitches: Foreign Body
Please, don't do as I did, please visit your GP for advice. The reason I could tell there was something wrong with my cut is that all my wounds heal so so fast. Straight into it, I am doing so well actually. Amazingly well. But this is how I managed to accelerate my healing. What happened was that

Kidney problems
I have recently started Anastrazole and Adcal and Alendronic Acid tablets for bone density. My cancer is progressing and I don't believe the Anastraxole is having any positive effect. I also have a morphine patch for pain relief. In the last week I find that I am not urinating as frequently as usual

Worried about Osteoporosis diagnosis and weather to take Alendronic Acid
Hello, I’ve just been diagnosed with Osteoporosis in my spine. I have no figures of the Dexa scan. My GP spoke to me on the phone. Feel upset and cross about it. Should I find out more before going on the medication?

What does this mean?!
Hi there - my last scan (2020) showed I have osteoporosis in my L1,2,3 &4. The Tscore was -2.5, meaning a -3.5%change since the 2015 scan (at which point I just had osteopenia in my spine). I also have a 6.5% chance of a “major of a major fracture”. My calcium levels were deemed to be fine but Alendronate
