Bone Density

November 28, 2006 / by MentalHealthRN

                         
I took a new medication this morning.. a once a month pill that is suppose to  help women who may develop  osteoporosis.  As directed, I took the medication, but it has cleaned my clock today, or something did. Slept this afternoon for 5 hours, just feeling weak. I'm sure it's temporary, and possibly not at all related to the medication.  Hopefully will be in full swing tomorrow.  Laterz Taterz

    I hope you feel better soon... and I hope it's not the meds either... that would be a major bummer!!!

    Jenn, I think I would take the kind of sleep over this one.... you know how it feels when you get a shot in a muscle and the next day the muscle is sore? Not horrible, just tender? All my muscles feel like that. I am going to try and get a good nights sleep. This being sick and helpless is not a role I play well...... Hope you are healing quickly.. take you meds... make the boys treat you like a queen, I know they already are.[HEART][KISS][HEART]

    Hmm. I wasn't aware that was a side effect. I hope you are feeling better this afternoon. [HEART][HEART][HEART]

    I just looked it up .... it isn't suppose to be. Probably just a 24 hr bug.[WINK]

    I thought I told you not to take your meds with a pint of Gin. Hope you are feeling better little sis.
  • MentalHealthRN said 1 years ago
    I thought you said don't take it if you are "sitting in", not pint of gin. Guess that's it. Waiting on the fruitcake brother man.

  • MentalHealthRN said 1 years ago

    DAWGNURSE HAS THE FRUITCAKE... how about something like that??[BLUSH]
  • bradpalaka said 1 years ago
    Boniva? Drowsiness isn't a usual side effect.
  • MentalHealthRN said 1 years ago
    I know Brad, I just read everything I could find. It must be unrelated, but I can't think of a thing I did differently yesterday or last night to cause a sudden malaise.[HUH]
  • lunarhunk said 1 years ago
    That stinks! I have heard a lot of tough things about those meds.

    Feel better Cindy! The way you've been so busy maybe it just caught up to you. [HEART]
  • dawgnurse said 1 years ago
    Maybe your body was just catching up on the rest you've been missing for the past couple of years! Shutting down now for a while...up and at 'em later. Hope you are better and back to your fiesty self![HEART]
  • jackshoss said 1 years ago
    [SMILE][SMILE] yeah it was probably a mix of the meds and catching up on some needed rest. Hope you're doing better[SMILE]
  • elfie33 said 1 years ago
    Hope you feel better. Write down how you felt after you took it, if it happens again you may need to let your Dr know...[HEART]

    [HUH] That sounds like something you should call your Dr. about yesterday if not sooner,,, my Dr. has me on Fosamax 70mg. once aweek to build my bone density up , the only thing with it is you have to remain sitting or standing for half an hour and can not take any other meds. ,, it sure never did that to me ,, HOPE you improve very fast[SAD][SAD][SAD]
  • sumkindabich said 1 years ago
    I don't think that was suppose to happen, call your hubby if not your own Dr, not a good thing. They don't mention that in the ad's.[HEART]
  • southwesterngrad said 1 years ago
    Some people have adverse reactions to this drug. Might not hurt to check with doctor.[HEART][HEART]
  • nanarue said 1 years ago
    Hmmm, Sally Fields doesn't say a thing about side effects does she? Sure hope you're feeling better.[THUMBUP][THUMBUP]
