lynn59 & babs10, we should compare notes going forward. I'm starting Forteo in April, 66 yo, 118 pounds, and don't meet the income guidelines for Forteo. Just had baseline biomarkers and DEXA. My endo is suggesting Reclast as follow up drug but is ok if I want to go on Fosamax. I'd like to explore hrt also. There's time to figure that out down the road.
I met with McCormick last year. He's suggestion was Forteo followed by Fosamax (or generic form Alendronate).

Yes let’s keep in touch as I’ll be going on teriparatide in April too. I’d love to start HRT but I’m very nervous as so many of my doctors are against it for cardiovascular reasons. I think I’ve decided to try Actonel to lock-in my gains and if I can’t tolerate it, then I’ll go to Reclast. But I could change my mind on that!!
