I don't know that Carol is taking anything. She is 88 years old and perhaps feels like it is not worth it. She has minded her husband dying and with covid and isolation, it is hard to think much about the future. I am not at this time taking anything. It's a risk I know but I am seeing a polio specialist in October and will discuss it with him. So many medications may help one thing and exacerbate something else which seems to be my case so often and makes me shy of trying something new.

I recently had to stop taking Prolia due to development of MRONJ. Fosamax would not work for me because of the MRONJ, but my Doctor has recommended tymlos as an alternative treatment for osteoporosis. If tymlos doesn't work, I am also going to review the option of Evista which is an estrogen treatment. Take care!
