my spine was bothering me but my chiro adjusted and I am doing more yoga. Seems to be ok now. its my knee...
@sparklegram I hope you visit goes well. I, too, have severe stenosis in my lower spine and cervical spine as well as spina bifida of my coccyx and a few other yucky spine problems. Hoping that does not get any worse, but don't have high hopes as I already have osteoporosis of my spine and osteopenia of my hip and forearm. I'm supposed to have Zometa infusion, but cannot until my dental work is done and dentist clears me. He says because the Zometa (biphosph.) if started too soon, then the gum/roots will never heal. If it isn't one thing, it's another! I do take my Anastozole (Arimidex) just before going to sleep.
@sparklegram ok FYI something to think about...why would my doctor tell me to check with my dentist and primary before I started AI? Why did he tell me to get ready to exercise, take Vitamin c, D, and Fosomax. I'll tell you because that AI is horrendous on bones! It sucks it out! Another reason it hurts so much!
This is just my opinion, but, if breast cancer was a predominant male disease there would be better meds with less side effects!
