I’m not sure your situation but have been on fosomax. Alendronate for 3 years with no real improvement. Cleveland stated I will not gain bone density from this. I haven’t yet seen them except virtual & them seeing my labs and Dexa scores. I haven’t a clue how each person or drug works, but sharing my experience & history for what it’s worth.

I do appreciate reading others journeys.
Good luck

Have your DEXA's stayed the same during the 3. years on Fosamax? If you won't gain bone density, what is the benefit to taking Fosamax? Did they say why you won't gain density? My Dr explained that because old bone isn't sloughed off while on Fosamax, that is what shows the gains in bone density on DEXA.
