@juanitalinda my last reply was in response to windyshore's comments on this conversation, actually. In light of the context and history you subsequently shared, I'm not disputing your doctor's certainty that another fracture is a given without meds. But they may happen anyway even with them. And no one can dispute that. I most certainly hope you don't fracture and wish you the very best on your course of meds. I"m sorry if I offended you . I'm bowing out now.
