@heartfelt70 can you cite your statement that bones after bisphosphonates are "like chalk" and "crumble"? It is commonly known that bisphosphonates should not be taken for more than 3-5 years, because bone density is increased by lowering bone turnover, so there is less or no new bone. But the incidence of femur fracture or jaw necrosis in that time frame is rare.

This mechanism for bone growth IS a reason to do an anabolic first!

I am curious how doctors make money when they give us meds. Sincere question. I am sure you are right but I would like to know the mechanism.

I am sorry you had an awful reaction. I have also had awful reactions to many meds. But some do fine with bisphosphonates and benefit. Those people tend not to post here because they have no reason to.

I am cautious and am doing low doses and apart from fever have done okay with it.

@windyshores hi so if bisphos only for 1 tob3 years? What heck are we supposed to be doing after that? Let my l4l5 fusion screws and rods in spine. How do I keep it strong. Can't lift heavy enough weights. Have 10 bulging discs. Don't want to have another spondylolisthesis which is slipped disc reason I had to have this fusion. I feel like I'm doomed. Can't stomp for fear screws come out or rods from the jarring. I don't know what to do did evenity feb 2026 last one. Then want me do reclast. I'm terrified I will get breathing respiratory failure have COPD 20BYEARS. DONT WANT BACK PAIN OR SOASMS IN BACK OR SEVERE PAIN IN BACK LEGS, HIPS, AND BACK WITH MY FUSION NOT EVEN HEALED YET IN FEBRUARY. YEAR SIBCE FUSION IS MAY. INS WONT PAY FOR BONE DENSITY TILL APRIL 30 2026. DONT WANT PROLIA EITHER. DONT THINK THEY WILL GIVE ME ANOTHER ANABOLIC BUT THATS WHAT I WANT TO BUILD MORE BONE. I HAD ALENDRONATE 5 YEARS BEFORE EVENITY SO UT WOLL BE LESS BONE BMD CUZ THAT. ANY SUGGESTIONS?
