Please note that this article, although very good and thorough, was written in 2012 and a lot has changed in 13 years.

Great point! I was about to go back and list some more recent articles but the point is is that it’s still the same and that’s why the rec class is only proposed for a three year. Period. They’re simply not enough information to be panicked about. I had the same thing (hip fracture with no fall) pain in my thigh, which was from the statins. Should everybody stop taking statins? They are dispense like candy. Statins have side effects and nobody seems to care about those well, Dr. suspense them like candy. but the bone medicines are specifically targeted for panic. and hysteria and the incidents of problems are extremely low by today’s standards, but the first time reactions to once first infusion are significantly high. I wasn’t on any bone medication when I had my fracture. Medicine is serious stuff. And like the label say “your doctor has prescribed this medication because they think it’s beneficial even with risk.“ I was one of those people who had the world’s worst reaction to the first infusion. But I wasn’t prepared for the first infusion. That sucks but that’s life. I read the information and when I go back for the RECLAST after I complete the TYMLOS I will do the preparation work and the statistics say that one goes from a 10% risk for side effects to a one percent risk of side effects.
In any case, the literature seems to suggest that the people who have these rare femur, fractures and brakes already have a condition that predisposes them to the break, it’s very rare and by not going beyond the three years of rec class there should not be a problem according to the literature that exists today. The literature today says there’s only a link and hasn’t gone beyond the original literature of 2012 in that regard.
