Good evening, Zygote. I just reviewed your comment about Tymlos. I was actually a bit surprised by your comment about the side-to-side effects. This did not appear when I began my association with Tymlos three years ago. I may have had some minimal discomfort, but no pain.
I had started on Boniva and that was the wrong choice. After two months of tracking my levels of discomfort, my PCP and Endocrinologist suggested Tymlos. That turned out to be the right choice for me.
Good luck and good choices. Let me know how it works now.
Chris
@zygote maybe try going down to a half dose ( 4 clicks of the pen) and then work up. I even went down to 1/4 dose (2 clicks) and worked up to 7 clicks. I was never really able to tolerate the full 8 clicks but had excellent gains. Ramping up from a lower dose lets the body get used to it without so much suffering !
This means using the pen for more than 30 days, potentially, so keep it in the fridge...
