What decision to make regarding osteoporosis

Hi Sammy,
I am so sorry to hear that about the Prolia.
That’s amazing you had such great gains with Evinity. I worry about what’s next as well. I still have not started anything by due to some issues with my jaw. They were afraid to put me on evinity because of a very small risk of jaw issues so now they want me on tymlos. That worries me because my hips are also bad and from what I understand evinity does a much better job building spine and hips. Are you a slight built person? I have a very small frame and very small wrists and bones however I am almost 5’8”.
Have you seen Windyshores post about reclast. She is so lucky to have a good doctor who is allowing her to try a very small test dose if reclast.
Please let me know how you are doing.
Best wishes for your next step in this process.
Candy

I was told Tymlos is better for hips than Forteo. I had a decent gain in hips- 6%?
@cabdy209 just want to make the point again that my doc is not "letting me" do a test dose. He is basically requesting that I do that due to other health issues. Most people do fine with Reclast and doing hydration, tylenol and slow infusion is supposed to be helpful. Good luck!
