I have had an appt with Dr McCormick and I had some GERD issues in my distant past. He said to me after Forteo , as the anabolic he recommended for me , he would use Actonel instead of Fosamax. Food for thought. Maybe check that out . Ask your practitioners questions. Good luck!!

thank you. I am keeping careful documentation of any GERD which not ever problematic for me in my past. Maybe holiday eating though careful contributed. Found it unusual that symptoms were only at night and the next day not night of and
only for 2-3
nights. Some say side effects dissipate over time. Trying to hang in there. Powerful medicine even though poorly absorbed. Hoping that means I don’t need to take for a long time. I have a CTX in January and maybe that will help in deciding length of anti resorption treatment but next DXA isn’t til October 2024 so probably not going to be able to stop this med any time soon. Although I am working with 2 different endocrinologists I’ve considering adding Dr McCormick as I’m probably not terribly far away in CT. Throwing everything I have at this beastly disease!! Appreciate your input.
