Default question was meant for ADRseeker

Hey Judy,
I was responding to what ADRseeker posted after checking out the link mentioned for Regenexx so the question was posted to this poster.

I stopped taking my injectable Forteo because it has such a plastic-y smell and I know that may have been stupid but it actually made me feel like vomiting just smelling it. My PCP told me to hold my nose or cover it with something pleasant smelling like Lavender. I still have to see my Rheumatologist and admit non compliance w/treatment and get BMD done. I only hope it has not gone lower.

I have seen what happened to my father with severe osteoporosis and do not want to go there. My mother, brother and father had/have it.


I do think that often the benefit(s) outweigh the risk(s) in medicine and on that premise we choose to proceed w/various treatments/endeavors.
