LOL, your experience with doctors is so much like mine. She wanted to try me on those osteo drugs and I always refused. I’m not taking dangerous meds with side effects like stroke, heart attack, AFIB, liver failure, etc. I have asthma and took steroids for a long time in my 30’s. The pulmonary specialist told me then that it would mess with my bones. I refuse to take calcium since Mom took it and it built up in her heart. She ended up with a stent because of the high amounts of calcium. I do take vitamin D and Magnesium and I eat good.
I’ll take meds that make my life better but I’m not taking dangerous meds that lower my quality of life or endanger my life more than whatever they treat does.
I agree. I've always believed in quality of life, not quantity.
