Doctors Reprimand Me For No Osteo Meds

Yes i had one doctor get upset because I stopped taking Fosamax. He insisted on me seeing an endocrinologist (female). She wanted to put me on Recast and I wanted to think it over due to side effects and she didn't like my hesitation and told me if i wasn't going with the program not to come back. I left upset and crying and didn't go back. Next Endo was from the same office and had the best reviews so I chose him. He wanted me to take Forteo and inject myself daily for 2 years and I said no. Then he put me on Prolia. Hav had some side effects but not too bad. When i try to tell him about new side effects that I might have developed and read about from Mayo and/or Cleveland clinic, his response was well you can go there for treatment, it's nice this time of the year (December, 2025). Very sarcastic. I developed 2 kidney stones because he had me on too much calcium supplements so now I have to deal with that. This is my story. Hope it helps.

@ebrezinsky Wow, that is amazing that a doctor would say that to you.

@ebrezinsky

What kept you from taking an anabolic like forteo?
