[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 398638, member: 2423"] I have osteopenia, the precursor to osteoporosis. My doctor was all ready to put me on the one of the medications to treat osteoporosis, but I have severe GERD and was extremely reluctant because I know that the medications that treat osteoporosis can be very hard on your esophagus and I didn't want any more damage than I already have. So I decided to go to an endocrinologist who specializes in osteoporosis at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, Maryland, to see if I really needed to be treated for osteoporosis. She said I didn't need to be. This is all my long way of asking whether you really need to be on Actonel. And if you don't, then perhaps your GERD will clear up on its own. Just a thought . . .
