Isn't this the question?

For you the meds worked, albiet for a while...IF you find a connection between the bone loss and the meds - report it to the FDA, it's easy. You can report to each med mfr...they are supposed to report it to the FDA but not always. I've found that docs who should report don't. IF no one knows about the fact that med combos could/can cause other problems, nothing happens. There's so much NOT known about long term use. Reporting is the only way s/e's could be known. Once the mfrs. get their approval, they really don't bother looking for s/e's or problems unless forced to. There! I've got that off my chest.

As for having stuff on my plate, looks like I'll be able to 'stuff' it all down the disposal when I see the new doc soon. I HOPE! Maybe surgery, maybe new meds...what the heck! What's one more?

Hugs Billye, may you stop doing this and start doing this! - j
