Where is your joint pain? I started having pain in my left upper to mid back(sometimes not much and other days very bad) shortly after starting Evenity last June. Over the last few months it seems to have gotten worse. I finally went to a pain management Dr. who said I have osteoarthritis in my spine and prescribed Meloxicam. (He never even examined me, just looked at my MRI but I was desperate so went along.) I'm not sure it's helping since some days the pain is almost debilitating. I also went to PT and got massages, use heat and or ice and stretch. Sometimes that helps but not always. I just sent away for a medical marijuana card hoping I'll get some relief. I only have one more shot of Evenity so I'm sticking it out. After that? Fosamax possibly.
Hi, I never had any joint or muscle pain prior to Evenity. It has gotten better but still don't think is fully resolved and I'm not sure why. The pain made me change my exercise/workouts and that may be contributing to my reduced range of motion even after more than a year. I am 67 and had no noticeable issues at all except a not so great DEXA which took me onto this path. I had to have rotator cuff surgery so that didn't help with mobility and strength either. It's been an interesting couple of years! I wish you the best!
