@jodeej Thanks. After writing my previous post, I remember that Fosomax is oral. I don't think they would want me to take the oral ones because I have a history of Barrett's Esophagus. It is currently in remission but they don't say it is cured.

That's great that your bones have improved. I know I need to get on something but frankly, with the side-effects, I am sort of leery. I am one of those people who have side-effects frequently. When a number of years ago I was put on lisinopril for high blood pressure I had no idea that cough was a side effect. I went to my then PCP and she immediately knew it was from lisinopril and changed me to a different BP medication. More recently I was put on cholesterol medication. I had no idea that it could cause muscle aches but I happened to mention to a friend who is very medically savvy that my legs were always hurting. She immediately asked if I was on cholesterol medication! So I am off that for now too. I have trouble with a number of other medications also, I just seem to be one of those people who is sensitive to many medications. Of course I had to come off tacrolimus also because of a reaction. 😟

I know there are some meds that are intravenous, but I would worry that those would cause a worse reaction.
