Patty, My Mom had to do that for her hand and arm. It did help her. I wish it was just the OA, but it's been since I took that boniva, and I'm not agreeing with what the pharmacist and doctor said, due to nobody has gotten sick other than me, and we know viruses are contagious. I won't be taking anymore of it, or anything for the bones, other than the Calcium/Vitamin D supplement. I was in little pain before, but can't even eat since the second day after I took the boniva. I can't live on Gluten Free toast the rest of my life. That's all I've been managing to eat.

I have Asthma, Bursitis in both hips, Celiac Disease, Dermatitis Herpetiformis (Skin version of Celiac Disease), Macular Degeneration, OsteoArthritis (according to Bone Density scan results, the area in my neck where OA is bad, is showing weakness in the bone. I start on Boniva, as of July 4, 2012 for it.

It really does help with the swelling from OA in the hand or RSD.. The tight feeling was driving me crazy the most, and the constant throbbing...I swear it still feels Broken... Hugs Patty Love and Peace, Patty

Hope and pray the swelling has gone down for you, Patty. I'm doing better, Patty. Guess what I had was a virus. My husband felt achy a few days ago, then yesterday, he had the other bad part of it. I had no idea till he came out and gave me a goofy look. Then I asked if he had it, he went, yes. I said, Sorry? and oops! lol I didn't laugh when he was here, he had to go somewhere, so after he left, I snickered. I know, me bad!!! I just couldn't help myself, due to he's the one who usually gives me something like that, instead I gave it to him. He was feeling better this morning. Not fair that he gets well fast, and it lingers with me for a week. Glad he got over it fast. His son is the next victim. lol Sorry, laughing on that one too, due to he's such a pain in my side. lol GBHugs, Donna "I am not a Doctor and there is NO substitute for getting proper medical diagnosis and advice."

Donna Glad your doing better. My swelling is better due to using the ace glove for my hand, I may need to wear it again when the heat and humidity starts to rise again... Hugs, Patty Love and Peace, Patty

Patty, Glad to hear you're doing better. That heat and humidity sure can be hard on us. Looks like I'll be bringing the two bucks and Chloe back in the house either today or tomorrow. Not looking forward to having more cages to clean or messing with the ice bottles, but I'll do what I have to do for the rabbits.

It sure does, Patty. I know a lot of us have been dealing with a lot of stress. We missed the storms yesterday. We thought we were going to get them, but by the time they came close, they broke up. My husband said it rained last night, if it did, sure couldn't tell it. I went out early to take care of Lyle and Dude, the two rabbits I have outside. I have Chloe, Oreo, and Harley back in the house. It's only gotten up to 92 so far today, but the humidity is up. I wish we'd get more rain as well.
