General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi!

We will try to help you in the best way possible. First of all its sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, you need to have a rheumatologist review and bone scan or Dexamethasone scan done. You had been on Bisphosphonates for quite long and may have delayed bone resorption, but if you have quit it abruptly it may need to be evaluated.

T score evaluation along with work up for osteoarthritis or inflammatory arthritis as well as crystal arthropathy with uric acid levels and inflammatory markers should be done. Meanwhile, OTC analgesics like Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen can be used.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sameer Maheshwari,
Cardiologist
