@sbcher so sorry Evenity did not work! Had you done any meds before Evenity?

As I wrote before, I have seen suggestions for Prolia just 2-3 times to get a boost, while minimizing rebound, and then going to a bisphosphonate. Maybe that is in a study stage but you could ask your doctor.

It seems that noone is doing Forteo or Tymlos after Evenity. I have not seen data on that, only on the reverse sequence. You could ask about that too.

It seems that bisphosphonates aren't used for bone growth so much as "locking in" gains for more severe osteoporosis.

Let us know. We are all learning since Evenity is so new!

@windyshores Thank you. Yes I was taking the once a week pill, cannot remember the name. Starts with an A. Then started Evenity. My doctor wants me to finish Evenity, two more months then start provia. I'm a bit nervous about all of it. Its difficult with Evenity being a new drug. there's not a lot of feed back yet.

Good luck to you as well. Take care
