Biophosphanates and ADR or fusion

[sahuaro]

Jeff:
Thanks for the info--as my PCP indicated, the literature on biophosphanates is confusing and often contradictory. You certainly had a dramatic improvement with the Fossamax, which is terrific. Were you able to have DEXA scans with the ADR's and if so, did they have to make any adjustments? I'm asking because when I went for my scan, they asked if I had any metal in my body and when I indicated that I had a cervical ADR, the response was that the scan wouldn't be near there so it was a non-issue. I am kicking myself now for missing an opportunity to glean some information about this...

From your and Maria's experience, I guess I am leaning towards remaining on the Actonel...
