I started taking Fosamax 11-17-02..In three weeks I started experiencing pain in my right toe - light a bunion...then my neck started hurting so bad I bought a special pillow. Then pain my my knees and fingers started hurting so bad I could hardly move them. I stopped taking Fosamax and went to a doctor. MRIs revealed cartiledge tears in my right knee and the bone spur I had ripped my tendon in half in my right shoulder. I had to have 2 operations and have been off work for 2 months. Rotor cudd aurgery was extremely painful and debilitating. Before I took Fosamax I was doing yoga 3 times a week and was feeling great...Now in April, finally my toe is back to normal and my hands and fingers don't hurt - I am convinced Fosamax has been the cause of all these ailments because the inflamation caused by the Fosamax destroyed my knee and shoulder
