My mother-in-law had been administered intravenous bisphosphonates by her doctor and she has been diagnoses with osteonecrosis of the jaw. And what really makes us upset is that her doctor didn't even entioned of any of side effects of boniva. Instead of healing patient they hart her really bad. She already had lost one tooth and the pain and decaying jaw bone.
Check out "jaw death!" I've just had to have a tooth extracted and needed a blood test in additon to signing a 3 page legal document of release - all because I have taken both Fosamax and Boniva! I am NO LONGER TAKING the drug! The dentist recommends an implant to replace the tooth.. No, I have not taken this drug by IV but I'm really searching for some answers before I sign another release.
The discrepancies between health care issues for men vs women is a horror. I witnessed my Moms Gyn dismiss her concerns about HRT for YEARS, before he finally listened to her and took her off of it. So many women (especially older women) are treated with a condescending and cavalier attitude for what are very valid concerns. It really bothers me. I am SO going to be flagged as 'difficult' as I get older:)
Rheumatoid arthritis is dreadfully painful, and a worse situation than osteoarthritis. If someone takes Prednisone for a long period of time, they may need to take meds like this, and Prednisone is sometimes used for Rheumatoid conditions.
I do occasionally take fish oil and love salmon, so I think I'll just do this the tasty way!! LOL Thanks Sign!

Not lie down????? AK!
Elaina43 3 years ago
If you lie down in that first hour, the med could cause a side effect in your esophagus like burning into it... so don't lie down!!

Agreed - no more. I may revisit the issue at age 65. Until then, no tests, no meds for it. No way.
Thanks catfish!

My grandmother had rheumatoid arthritis. Hopefully Boniva doesn't cause pain like that. Anyways, have you tried taking fish oils or eating salmon?
