Re: Need input!

Just back from hospital
Had leg x-ray today. They let me out so according to Nurse can't be an immediate concern (that I break femur)! What!!! Nurse also said "you have had (lesion) it a while" - Yes, only because it was missed on CT!
X-ray being sent to Oncologist & an Orthopaedic Surgeon to look at.
Didn't get bisphosphonate. Nurse not comfortable giving it because I have to get a root treatment next week. Even although my Dentist says its ok because only just starting bisphos. So one step back again. Also Zometa is bisphosphonate they want to give. I asked about Denosumab but apparently I don't fit criteria ( too young and no kidney problems) Plus it's too expensive! So looks like Zometa. Only good points are that I have 3 weeks to research other bisphos. & get root treatment done.
Does anyone know if one better than another?
