If your bone density scan shows severe osteoporosis, you have those three choices: Forteo, Tymlos and Evenity, all of which build bone. I chose Tymlos because the injection pen has "clicks" allowing the dose to be adjusted. I started at a lower dose and moved up as my body adjusted. But that's me and I was too sensitive to Forteo. Another poster will say they were better with Forteo. It is very individual.

McCormick in his book "Great Bones" and others have said Evenity is great if you need to improve fast. Sounds like that might be you. On the other hand Tymlos and Forteo are good for healing and you can take Evenity after Tymlos or Forteo.

It sounds like you are in a bit of dangerous predicament so a strong bone builder that works fast, like Evenity, isn't a bad idea but talk with your doctor.

The study on cardiovascular risk showed no difference between Evenity and placebo but Fosamax was slightly better, possibly due to chance. I do think the various effects of inhibiting sclerostin need more investigation but most people are doing really well on Evenity. (I did Tymlos then 4 months Evenity and now Reclast.)
