Osteoporosis medications and neuropathy

I have peripheral which at the moment is pretty quiet except for electric shocks at night. I was just diagnosed with osteoporosis. I’m scared of the meds, but scared to fracture. I hadn’t, however, really thought about whether the bone meds would cause my pn to flare up. I did ok with 4 Covid shots through fall 2022 but had a flare up of my neuropathy one year ago so I don’t know if I want to risk any more shots. I can’t say I’m glad others are in the same boat because it stinks. But maybe I can say its helpful to know others are dealing with similar issues.

It’s very difficult to make a decision when there are no definitive answers. I cannot, with any certainty, safely take any more Covid vaccines. Ultimately, I think we just have to try to weigh the pros and cons of the osteoporosis meds vs the risk of fracture with the information available to us. Good luck to you.
