I posted a few weeks ago saying that algin was helping me with mercury detox and that I was some better. I had the last of my amalgams removed last January and though I was better, I was hoping for more improvement than I had had. My son-in-law's aunt complained of severe pain to me in her arms, legs, lower back, and shoulders. I told her I had that to. I thought it was my firbromyalgia but then I remembered her telling me she is taking Fosamax.
I went off HRT 4 years ago and the doctor just insisted I should do something to protect my bones as I am very light built and petite and had osteopenia.
I started looking up long term side effects of Fosamax this weekend and found out I had every bad one in the book. The aunt did to. I thought all of my problems were mercury related but now I think a lot of the pain in my muscles and joints may be due to the Fosamax. I have been taking this s--- for 4 years. I do not know why I never checked into it before. I am never going to take another Fosamax pill again. From what I have read it takes weeks if ever for the symptoms to subside. I will keep you posted on how I do. Fosamax nearly killed my neighbor. It is poison! I was stupid to fall for the doctor's endorsement. I will just try calcium and exercise from now on. Cross your fingers I get better.
