Oh my goodness...your poor husband...he went through hell! I feel so bad for him. I hope he is feeling better by now. That's just AWFUL. I guess if I have to do it, I wouldn't get the 2 implants they said I'd have to do....plus whatever they'd do to make a bridge for 3 teeth....my one is a real tooth. They said MAYBE they could saw (yes,,,,ugh) the bridge and maybe save the one tooth....but it all sounds like a mess to me.....at my age, I don't need that. I guess...if I end up getting it, I'll go for the bridge, too. Also, thank you so much for all the information on the Fosomax. I really appreciate it. I was going to take the first today (Sunday), but am going to wait till next Sunday. The one supplement I wasn't taking was calcium, took it for many yrs., then read about how it may harm your heart....yrs. ago, so I stopped (that news scared me) and hoped I'd get enough through food, drink, etc., but didn't. I ordered Calcium (Standard Process) on Amazon last night. I guess better late than never? Not sure. I'm trying, though. My worst pain has been in the right side of my neck.....sometimes excruciating, other times bearable. I dug out the last bone density test I had (2017).....the worst T-score was in my neck... -3.0. Maybe I should have taken something sooner? I was scared & my Dr. (she's retired now, just loved her) left it up to me, but gave me the options. I was hoping I could improve things on my own. They didn't give me my T-scores this time, I left a message at the Dr's. office, asking for them. I always get copies...will need to ask for one from them. Thank you so much!!
