My neurologist is working with my insurance to have a DEXA scan after 6 months of Evenity. I agreed to stick with this drug for 6 months as I need to build bone for a much needed surgery. Evenity is like injecting a low grade poison into my system. It doesn't matter what location or the wait between the injections, same horrible reactions. But I expect that with most of the bone medications as I have reactions to almost everything. I have hope from reading on this blog that after so many months of Evenity some state the reactions are less. The neurologist will consider reducing the monthly injections to only one depending on the 6 month outcome. I am the only patient at the infusion center having to take 2 Evenity injections per month.

I was a nervous wreck before my injection. However, it went very well. I had them extend the duration to 1 hour and I made sure to drink plenty of water the day before. I did take Tylenol and they gave me water during the injection. Today is day 3 and my lower legs hurt some but not bad. I'm hopeful that will be all. Good luck!
