I posted in October 2010 regarding my femur fractures (Jo from Mo). I can now report that I underwent bilateral rodding in November and now 3 weeks after surgery I am improving nicely. My right femur fractured as the rod was being inserted, so that is the most painful part. All in all, the procedure was not as bad as I thought it might be. Much better to have than suffer a complete fracture. The doctors in my area were totally unaware of the connection until my case arrived on the scene. They have studied very quickly now and are trying to get all their patients off of bisphonates if they have been on them for very long. I am now getting stronger and beginning to get to the point of looking for legal advice. Too many of us have had our lives altered for years and probably in to the future as well. Is anyone trying to fight this alone or is class action the way to go? Also curious about how many are taking Forteo. I have been on it for over 2 mos. and not sure whether I want to continue it or not.
