Oh good grief! For years and years I've been taking 70 mg Fosamax (mine comes 4 expensive tablets per month in a little cardboard envelope, not a jar.) and I haven't heard a word about this.
I started taking it because my epilepsy drugs caused fairly severe osteoprosis. Fosamax repaired that in just a couple of years and I've just loved the stuff. I've never even thought about stopping it.
Next appt. I'll ask my Dr. about it too.

Alffe - I'm always thanking you -- here I go again .... Thank You, Alffe.
