Hello @flmargie, Welcome to Connect, an online community where patients and caregivers share their experiences, find support and exchange information with others. I'm sorry to hear about your fractured jaw. I'm sure that must be painful, as well as uncomfortable and difficult to manage. Strontium Citrate and other supplements should be discussed with your doctor to make sure it's safe for you to take. Here's some troubling information I found on Strontium Citrate that would cause me concern.

Has your doctor suggested any alternatives to the usual meds that you are not able to use?

This is one of many articles I came across while researching the Strontium supplement. Thank you, John, for sharing this information with others.

@johnbishop Thanks for the article. I have been wondering whether to take or not to take. Stay tuned till Wed., Thurs. and I will send a description of looking out my window. We are due for snow, rain, and ICE. My picture will sure change from today. How is your weather? Keep in touch and be safe. KLH
