HI Beth,
I took Actonel for about 6 months. I didn't like it because of the time frame of eating afterwards, I am also taking Nexium, so I have to wait to eat after that too. But, the Boniva is once a month, and I figured that I could forgo the Nexium one day, to take the Boniva. I also have calcium tolerance problems. I have to try it again, I can't remember what the problem, I think it is lots of gas and sends me into an almost diarea phase. Tomorrow, I am going to take it with a meal and see if that is better instead of right before bedtime. the only one I can tolerate is the choclate chews, can't remember the name of them.
I also have severe osteoporosis, osteoarthritis. My Mom is going to be 70 in the spring she has the bones of an 18 year old. good for her, but aggravating for me, my bones are like an 80yr old woman. nowww, something is backwards here, huh?
I hope you find something you can take honey.
