@windyshores - Thank you for your input and support…
I believe Tymlos is the same as Forteo and you can only be on one of them for two years, and she was on Forteo already. I want to believe that she will be fine on Prolia as she’s never been sensitive to any drug before but she’s resisting. And, yes, the thought is that she would never come off it as you mentioned. But maybe Evenity is the first thing she should try, that way if she has issues she can stop. I believe you’re on Evenity now, right? Did you start with just one shot or both? I thought maybe she could start with just the one but then I read that the side effects are the same even with the lower dose.
And regarding Bisphosphonates, they told her that she was on one (Fosamax) for too long and could not go back on another - I have to confirm this because it doesn’t sound right?

She could do Evenity and then Prolia. I don't think anyone other than me has done one shot of Evenity (!)and a doc certainly won't prescribe that! She will no doubt be fine with the full dose: most people are.

That way she avoids further bisphosphonates (unless she stops Prolia)
