Hi. I was diagnosed with osteoporosis in 2022 and was put on Alendronic acid once a week. After 3 years, an x ray revealed an increase in bone density of 9.7% in my hips but no improvement at all in my spine . I was changed over to an infusion of Zolendrate in February this year and had constant intense bone, joint and muscle pain for almost 2 weeks after that which I was told could happen. Thankfully it has settled down but I still get bone pain which is not as intense but makes me feel miserable. I don’t want to keep taking Paracetamol. What do others do to try to alleviate any pains they experience
Sorry about your bone pain. Must be awful. I might have to take the infusion, so it is a concern. I do not have any specific advice, but are you supplementing with vitamin D3? Even if you are, it may be worth checking your levels in case you are deficient and need a loading dose. This can really help with bone pain.
