osteoporosis
"This is the second round of taking Boniva tablets.  I had significant improvement, such that I could quit taking it after 8 months.  Two years later, my bone density results indicated that I was again starting to lose bone density so am on boniva again.  I responded well and quickly, but I think I quit taking it too soon.  I am taking the once monthly tablet and the first three months, each time, I had really bad muscle pain in my back for two days after taking the pill, but since I knew that was one of the possible side effects, I weighed the benefits against the muscle pain and chose to continue taking it.  I have been on Boniva this round for nine months now, and I no longer have the muscle pain or any other side effects."
