I had about 30 replies all stating they had no problem with either the daily
Fosomax or the weekly with the exception of the following:

+++++++++++++++++++++++

Fosamax is GF.  I took it and it killed my stomach and made me very
nauseated.  I had to stop taking it.

+++++++++++++++++++++++

Fosamax - either type - made my bones hurt so bad I just had to stop.  I'm
73, and active, but am relying on Calcium w/mag & zinc.  I hate pain.  Good
luck.  (Celiac, biopsy diagnosed 1987-bone density scan always at the bottom
of the chart - but rose on heavier doses of calcium - until misdiagnosis for
a couple of recent years requiring Prednisone knocked it back down again.
Now, no need for Prednisone, and am back on calcium w/mag & zinc and riding
my bicycle 3 miles/day.
