I have osteoporosis and have incurred several spinal fractures
I am now being asked to take alendronic acid and I’m a little scared. This seems to have so many severe side effects. Does anyone have any advice on this?

My daughter had a Kasai procedure a little over a month ago. We noticed today her stool went from bright yellow to pale cream. No temperature, normal appetite and very active. GGT levels fluctuate from 252 to 180 to 352. Could GGT be a factor? Anybody else have experienced a similar case? Did you require

Hashimoto's, levothyroxine intolerance. Help please anyone?
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's in February 2021, following a routine blood test, and put on 25mcg levothyroxine and was fine. In June 2021 my dose was increased to 50mcg. Again, I thought I was fine, although in hindsight, I think I may have been having side effects, but due to working etc missed

IBS general: my experience
This smell of rotting flesh comes from the
amino
acids
lysine and arginine being metabolized by bad colonic bacteria into cadaverine and putrescine – the compounds that give the characteristic smell of death!

DEXA scan....success
I asked for a DEXA scan a few months in to my PMR/GCA journey around 3.5 years ago. Thanks to the good advice on this forum I wanted to get a reading before I started with Alendronate. My gp felt it was unnecessary but I stood my ground. I was diagnosed with osteopaenia and so have been taking Alendronate

Latest visit to the Rhemy
I'm on 8mg steroids, 15mg methotrexate (to get me off the steroids) and Alendronic Acid for OP. My neck and wrists have been in getting worse as I reduce. I wake up with wrists throbbing and am finding it hard to dress myself again. I thought by reducing to 8mg the specialist would be happy but also
