| 1 | osteopenia | After about 18 months my terrible bone pain had gone away or so I thought. Now it has returned with a vengence in one leg to the point that I can hardly walk. This "medicine" ruins you for life. This should definitely be taken off the market. | F | 56 | 8 months 150 mg 1X M | 8/18/2011 | ||
