I have been on medication for my bones for the last 8yrs and for the last two months have been very unwell after taking it so much so that my G.P. has taken me off it, she has suggested an alternative which would be an injection every six months I am a bit apprehensive about this as quite often we only learn about side effects after the event this I have learned the hard way as the steroids have done  so much damage to my body over the last 12yrs  .  Hopefuly someone can help. Thanks in advance
