@sue225 She is 76 now at that time she was 57 I think . They did keep her in the hospital for a couple of hours but when she felt better they said she could go but call or come back if she felt worse . THey told her to drink plenty of water too. Some people will react differently but for her it was horrible . Depends on the persons makeup
Please do a lot of research before you take that Reclast or Prolia. I have not talked to one person who got better using that. I wish I could get my new DEXA scan - but I have to wait until the COVID 19 is not so bad (I have NO immune system). I have been doing nutritional supplements, exercise, and also a very low dose of estrogen. My previous DEXA scan score was very bad -5.7 and I was fracturing. The fracturing has stopped. But I need to get a new scan before I can claim I've improved. I refuse to take something with side effects so bad. Talking to those two women whose jaws were ruined by osteonecrosis after using those drugs was enough to convince me not to try it. The doctor was furious when I said I wouldn't take it. She left the room without saying another word. She knew absolutely nothing about nutrition - when I started talking about calcium, magnesium and boron she looked at me like I was speaking some other language. Those women that got osteonecrosis said it didn't stop with their jaws, it continued to waste other parts of their bodies. No way am I going to pay money to take a chance on that.
BTW: I took my parrot off the heart medication they gave her and she is back to normal! I thought she would die last night - but she is back to being herself! It's a miracle!
@lioness I meant to say "from the Reclast" regarding your friend.
