Hi, I took Actonel for about 6 months or so, and I think it definately did something to mess me up. I stopped taking it and went on hormones instead, at my doctor's recommendation (i have osteopenia).
I haven't had any problems with the hormones, and wish I never started with the Actonel (she told me it was the safest of the bone drugs with least side effects). well, this was a couple years ago, and my stomach stuff and LPR are now full blown. who knows what contributed? probably a lot of things. But I think it's just a matter of "pick your poison"
are you on anythng for Gerd/LPR?
good luck, and I can sure relate and sympathize with ya.
