Re: FORTEO



My Osteoporosis is bad and I have a swallowing problem because I also
have a muscle disease so taking pills is not for me. I was taking
Miacalcin nose spray but it wasn't helping. As Beach Runner pointed out
Rats given the drug that is in Forteo some have developed Osteosarcoma a
bone Cancer. Which is rare in humans. These Rats were given drug for
most of their life time. Forteo is only a 2 yr program. So taking my
chances as my Osteoporosis is bad. I already had a bad fall 2 1/2yrs
ago and fractured myself in 3 places. CeeCee
