Osteoporosis treatment or strontium citrate?

Keith McCormick's site is OsteoNaturals. It is easy to google.

I cannot understand why it is suggested to stay at 20mcg of Tymlos. Most of us manage to get to higher doses even if not the full 80. It seems your doc is thinking the Tymlos helped you at that level when it might be the strontium.

Have you considered stopping the strontium while on Tymlos? It seems to be confusing the picture!

You can tell the doc what you want to do. If your doc doesn't let you decide, I would get another doc. I hope you can get to at least 40mcg and preferably 60 or 70 for full effect of Tymlos. Forteo's dosing is different so maybe your doc is thinking of that-?

Thanks @windyshores. I'm going to ask the radiologist if s/he can take the Strontium effect out of my score and try to make an appointment with Dr McCormick. I was hoping to increase to at least 40mcg, but am concerned about the cost of Tymlos. I do think that the 20mcg dose does a little something, because I had side effects for a long time. My endo did give me a new sample and of course the sample I have has lasted a long time since I am only taking 20mcg. He said that one pen cost $1800.
