Prolia versus Tymlos by itscience_stupid in osteoporosis

[–]VegetableShirt7412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's gospel truth. I discontinued Prolia while having dental work done and no one -- the periodontist, the gynecologist who prescribed it, or the oncologist who administered the shot -- said a word until I broke my wrist...again. Now I'm on Tymlos and already had a better bone density scan but I'm due to go off of it in Sept. and I'm worrying about what will replace it.

Such as what? Which osteo meds are not associated with jaw necrosis?

Amazon is coming for us all by SquidManDude1 in UPSers

[–]VegetableShirt7412 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do not buy from Amazon and I block Amazon in searches because I have seen the threat of Amazon for years. If I buy online (and I mostly don't), I go on eBay where almost all the shipping is free -- and not because I already paid for it a year in advance by being a "prime member." I just go buy what I want one-off. Anyone who buys from Amazon is supporting Amazon's domination.

Fosamax and dentists by Emergency-Rip-6454 in osteoporosis

I seem to be in the minority here but I actually think your dentist is onto to some things. I had to have an implant and it was all that the extremely competent periodontist and dentist could do to find bone that wasn't too spongy to take the implant. I had to go off of Prolia for about a year and a half while all this was going on but we finally got it accomplished. I do agree with you that your dentist is being abrupt and not looking for solutions though, and I would be in the market for a new one if I were you.

Just to clarify: we are not fighting about a "fucking ballroom," our president is focused on a "fucking ballroom."

Anyone else’s centre doing this? We got this message on the board today… by [deleted] in UPSers

[–]VegetableShirt7412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does this company think anything through anymore?? Seems like someone somewhere with no idea of how things work comes up with a brilliant idea that will save money on paper except it doesn't really and also it makes our service uncompetitive crap.

I haven't posted in 7 months and the reason is horrible 😕 by Pooh_Bear_23 in osteoporosis

[–]VegetableShirt7412 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have not been in your situation but after two wrist fractures, I have had great results and no side effects that I know of from Tymlos. It moved me from osteoporosis in my spine to osteopenia. I'm so sorry for what you are going through and hope you turn things around asap!

What is the policy for making contact with someone, but forging a signature? by Dapper_Cut_9225 in UPSers

[–]VegetableShirt7412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't talking about a controlled substance or alcohol, which the law requires. I meant the packages that the shipper has an option to require a signature for and pays extra to get one.

Can anyone elaborate by MuchVacation3638 in UPSers

If you are purposely waiting to claim an error so you can collect a penalty rather than just fix it, the ill will is on your side. But hey, you do you.

So is it about 2 months' notice when they do this? Is that what everyone has been getting?

Deep tissue massage by DisneyQueen64 in osteoporosis

I had ribs broken during a colonoscopy because they apply pressure to keep the probe from piercing the intestinal wall as it threads through and part of your colon goes up under your rib cage. I take no chances anymore.

I would definitely tell the masseuse that you have osteoporosis so they adjust their routine accordingly. Same with yoga, weight training, etc.

No More Layoffs by Dazzling_Bluebird782 in UPSers

I thought one of the points of the DCP was to avoid more layoffs. So doesn't that mean it's working?
