    I just remebered I was supposed to call today to get the info. I will post tomorrow, once I get details and can remember the name of the drug.... begins with "A" but is not the generic for Fosomax. Drug is approved for treatment of osteoporosis. My preliminary understanding is that the Rebecca study is focused on preventing bone loss in women who have been diagnosed with bc. I'll write more when I get more info. Maybe someone else can fill us in in the mean time. I'm interested in this study because I was diagnosed as osteoporatic several years ago (prior to bc) and will have to take medication for my bones no matter what.
