Just finished my year on Evenity and had these T-score results compared to 18 months ago:
AP Spine was -1.2; now -0.2
Femoral Neck was -3.0; now -2.8
Total Hip was -2.1; now -1.7
Total Forearm was -2.2; now -2.4
1/3 Forearm was -2.2; now -2.3
UD Forearm was -1.5; now -2.1
Surprised about the forearm numbers getting worse!

Just curious. Did you do weight bearing exercises during your treatment?
I'm asking because my first physical therapist gave me a bunch of strength building exercises that targeted legs and spine. However, when I went to a second physical therapist she insisted I add exercises to target my arms and wrist, since they also suffer osteoporotic fractures.
However, I do agree with @ans. My broken shoulder was nowhere near as painful or debilitating as the broken femur and spinal fracture.
How did you get those all those scores - My insurance only pays 1 times 2 years.
It seems a very good ideal , so that you know what is working and what is not
working.
Thank you
My forearm numbers are also worse. Spine and hip improved. Am waiting to post details until after the next consultation with Dr. McCormick.

laurensb,
Those are great improvements! Except for arms - I didn’t know they measured forearms? That never comes up on my dexa.
