Anyone know anything about this drug? I'm 65 and I was diagnosed with osteopenia ( beginning of osteoporosis) at the end of April. I was prescribed Fosimax and at my wife's advice, I waited until after American Zoffingen on May 17 to start the drug. I was rocking for AZ. I raced hard in the heat and it took two weeks to recover. Then we flew to Hawaii for two weeks. I rented a bike from Boca Hawaii and I really lacked strength on the hills but didn't thinnk anything of it. Three weeks before I was killing it on the hills at AZ, both running and biking. Running, I felt OK but all of our runs were flat around Haleiwa. I thought maybe I was still feeling it from AZ but it was now over three weeks. Going home was the plane ride from hell with three screaming babies and one of them right behind me. I got no sleep at all on the overnight to NY. It took me a week and a half to recover and get my sleep back together and my legs were dragging on all my workouts. Now, my sleep has recovered and I'm feeling good again but I have no strength in my legs. I talked to my brother who is not athletic this weekend. He asked me about the Fosimax and said that he was put on it and it made him so weak in his legs that he could hardly walk. Could this be what's happening to me? I've been taking it for seven weeks but today I skipped it. I'm going to stay off of it for a month and see how my legs feel. I looked online for sie effects and didn't see anything about leg weakness. I did see ''spontanious femur fractures'' which scares me big time.

So, does anyone have any knowledge of Fosimax? Is my weakness from the drug or is this just from being 65 and not wanting to act like it?
