My son has had similar experience and now refuses to go to doc too. He hurts all the time and can’t get any relief . He now has developed breathing issues. It is so sad for him

Yes, I developed breathing problems while on treatment and thereafter. But.... I was a smoker.

I can't think of too much it didn't do. Everyone who too these drugs should be getting a bone density test. It really damages the bones, that is contributing to the pain. Previous to treatment I was told I had the bones of a 20 year old. After treatment, osteopenia, and terrible pain in my legs. This pain first appeared when I was put on this drug and the pain lingers, it did not go away. I am taking 1200 mg calcium. I also take CQ10, which is an anti-inflammatory and NAC, 600 mg twice a day. Have your son take the NAC and CQ10, NAC is good for the lungs. He should also get a bone density test.

He will notice a difference within 2-4 weeks. All of these supplements cost money, the doctor's who did this to us should be paying for our supplements!

Take Care.

@bulldogmama4 It sounds like your son is in pain and unable to get relief and now he has developed breathing issues. I'm wondering if your son has formal supports like a disability social worker?
