The drug Fosamax, used in the treatment of Osteoporosis, has now been linked to 23 cases of esophageal cancer and also linked to a condition known as osteonecrosis in which the bone of the jaw dies off. But it may help your osteoporosis!
I know you have all read and heard the warnings of almost every drug on the market: "Take this and it will help your shoulder pain but it may cause rectal bleeding, oozing open sores, impotency, and blindness but you can count on it to help shoulder pain."
A recent magazine I received had one page of advertisement for some drug followed by four pages of side effects which may occur if you take it.
I think I have a handle on all that stuff. I do not take one single pill of any kind. I may be just a disease waiting to happen but the way I look at it, I would rather die from the thing that kills me than from the pills I took to cure it!
