dannyanddebbie How ironic. I had the Reclast infusion and the very next morning I woke up with shoulder pain. Lots of other pains, too, but the shoulder pain is unique. Most of our bone/joint pain is in the lower extremities...weight bearing joints and bones. In the article about the 82 year old woman, she had "progressive weakness and tenderness in her bilateral upper extremities, including her hands, arms, and shoulders." There's the shoulders again. I had so many of the same side effects that she had. How could I not believe it was from the Reclast? And by the way, I didn't read the article and then decide I had the same side effects. I had been suffering with them for well over a year, long list that I actually wrote down, before I even saw the article. I'm still having those pains a year and a half later. Can't get a doctor to even look at my list. Can't get a doctor to even agree that it might be from the Reclast. So strange.
Your post about the Urolift is horrible. Just another example of how we need to get this info...real life examples...out to everyone. We can't sit silent and let the drug companies become rich on our misery.
Aquablation is a less invasive alternative to things like TURP. Fewer side effects and faster recovery time. High-pressure water is used to remove excess prostate tissue. The key is to make sure you find a good surgeon. I've been to three urologists, and I only trusted one of them. Anyway, I don't want to hijack this thread with another medical issue, but definitely look into it.
