Have been on Fosamax for 3+ years & developed osteonecrosis in my jaw.
The enlargement has stretched my gums in the area so it has split open. Also began to have severe stomach issues. Had some improvement in bone density but not worth the side effects.

@dianebroffdodson Thanks for your note. Sorry to hear that! That is the side effect that most scares me. I train for marathons and I really don't want to deal with any side effects to be honest! Although I'm sure no one wants side effects. 3 of my sisters are taking Fosamax and so far have been free of side effects. But I think it has only been a year or so.
