Thank you so much @teb! I'm weighing different options as a follow up for forteo, so your info and experiences are very helpful.

Have you and your endo considered any of the bisphosphonates as an option? How about Evista? Would like to hear your or your endo's thoughts about these options. Thank you!

I really wasn't keen on going on bisphosphonates. I may have to at some point but it wasn't a first choice coming off Forteo. Evista is known to have some side effects. None of doctors felt that it was a great option (but they also didn't think HRT was a great option either!). Again, I wouldn't rule it out completely, especially if I have to go off the hormones at some point, but it wouldn't be my first choice.
