Please pray that I don’t have to start taking a dangerous medication l.
I have a prayer request. I took the bone density medication Fosamax for several years but stopped because it has some dangerous side effects. Instead I now take vitamin K2 everyday. My bone density has improved only slightly since taking K2 (for two years). However, I was recently told, by the surgeon who replaced my right knee, that my bones are really bad. He said I need to get on a strong bone density medication.
There isn’t a single osteoporosis medication that doesn’t have side effects; some of which, like stroke and heart attack, are extremely scary. Please pray for me by asking God to heal my bones. I really don’t want to start taking any of these bone medications.
My second knee replacement surgery is tentatively scheduled for June 16th. I’m praying for my surgeon to witness a miracle, and for him to tell me I don’t need to get on bone medication after all.
I’m going to hold off asking my primary care physician to prescribe osteoporosis medication until after my second knee replacement surgery, in the hope I won’t need it.
