..can anyone explain the different between bisphophonates and anabolic (eg Forteo) for me please?. From Prolia, and bone fractures this winter, i am still having trouble lifting. Gardening is what i have to do for awhile now anyway. And i look with horror at the rocks i have lifted last summer, which perhaps caused the bone fractures of late January , although it wasn't coincident in time. anyway, a long haul i guess. It's hard to look after oneself...!
