Lola,
My experience with Fosamax and calcium is similar to Irene from Tampa. I started on Fosamax in 1996 for osteopenia. Now I am on Fosamax weekly which is much easier for me to take. I, too, have severe calcium problems (Hypoparathyroid) because of Thyroid cancer and my thyroid surgery back in 1975. I am now on 1600 miligrams of calcium (Citracal) and rocaltrol. So to answer your question: No, Fosamax is not the answer for low calcium problems but it is very helpful to stop the progression of osteoporosis. By the way, I, too, have acid reflux but take Protonix for that issue.
Hugs,
Maggie in Maryland
