I had lap-band surgery about four weeks ago. I'm back to eating fairly normally again with some exceptions.
I was wondering if it's OK for me to start taking Actonel (for thinning of the bones) again? Does anyone take Actonel? If so, how soon did you resume taking it after your surgery? I'm a little nervous about it because Actonel is kind of hard on the stomach.
Thank you!
