I was nervous about the cancer, trusted the doctor, and did not do research on the fermera. the firts of this year my doctor retired, and a new younger doctor over did the bon e scan...it showed high risk of hip fracture. he wats me to take a new drug approved less than 1 year, and has many side effects . The drug is prolia injection. If i do not take it he will take me off femera. Other tablets for bone loss would have a bad effect on my esophagus, needless to say I am concerned. my oncologist prescribed fererma after lumpectomy to be take for 5 years. i was told to take calcium and vitamin D3. i was not ask about bone loss or bone scan. so for 2 1/2 years i was taking this drug that causes bone loss. if i had been ask, i knew i had had a bone scan in the past that showed i aleady had a problem at that tme.
