Is it Tymlos that you are starting on Thursday? Please share your experience, such as starting at a low dose and working up, side effects etc? That's one drug my Dr is recommending for me. Also, have you taken any other drugs for your bones? I am still trying to decide what to do. thanks.

Yes -tymlos! I will do the first dose in doctor office Thursday so I think we’ll start at 6 turns to see what if any side effects I’ll have. 4 seems too low and 8 too high. I have osteoporosis in my spine only and reclast stabilized me for 4 annual doses but didn’t help T score significantly so I’ve been told Tymlos should increase spine by 10% which will take me out of osteoporosis range. Then they’ll do reclast to “lock it in”. Fingers crossed!! I am starting a journal to record my 2 year journey on Tymlos. My MD says just about all her patients have little to no side effects after 2 weeks. This forum suggests otherwise so I am going to have to find out for myself 🙂 I am happy to share thoughts and updates here anytime. I also will keep up my yoga/strength practice which has kept me strong and limber and hope hope hope I don’t have the extreme muscle pain and cramps others speak of. I’m going to start taking it at night and appreciate one comment which said taking it in morning helped her not think about side effects. I’ll keep you posted. Let me know what you decide!!
