anyone with bone density loss from A.I.?
I have been on A.I. for 33 months. I was on Fosamax for about 12 to 18 months, with an interruption of about 6 months due to digestive system upset and discomfort. When the side effect was not tolerable, the doc put me on a nose spray, which apparently has low efficacy. My bone loss now is about 3.5%. I am aware that there are several more potent treatment, mostly by injection, either monthly or once a year. Are there anyone on these potent treatment here and what are your reaction from the treatment? I appreciate your input.
