I was given Atelvia and told that it doesn't cause swallowing difficulties. Have seen commercial to that end. Within 2 months, I had swallowing difficulties. They went away after stopping Atelvia. YMMV. Have had no problems with strontium, but won't know what effect it has on my osteoporosis till a year from now. I'm willing to try it that long. (did I post this before?) If you've got swallowing problems, maybe SC would work for you? It's up to you, though...don't take my word for it--check it out.
