Hi @sunny65,

I just finished Evenity on June 27 and had no side effects besides those associated with getting a flu shot - redness, swelling, slight pain . . .

I was on Tymlos for 8-1/2 months with pretty much the same symptoms (plus several others) that you describe for Evenity. Half life for Evenity is about 13 days, so the symptoms may settle down around that time. You should at least make it known to your doc that you’re having these issues. I kept a daily diary while on Tymlos so I could give my doc a good description of what was happening.

I am so sorry to hear of your back pain! I, too had debilitating pain while on Tymlos, so I am in your corner! Is your back pain from a fracture or have you not been diagnosed as to why your back hurts?

It can be sometimes difficult to determine how one will react to OP meds (my doc didn’t pay any attention to my debilitating pain) so it can be trial and error.

I hope this gives you some insight about these meds. Please keep me apprised of how things are going for you. I wish you the best and hope things turn around for you . . . and quickly!

Cheers!

I am sorry you are feeling ill after taking Evenity. I didn't know those symptoms were a side effect to Evenity. I just had my 5th shots. I honestly thought about not having them because I had a reaction with my 4th shots. I always get one shot in each arm and had never even felt them during or after. After my 4th shots my arm got large raised red rashes that itched. I put cortisone cream on them and took Benadryl. That got rid of it. I called the infusion center and they told me to take Claritin before my shots. I did for my 5th shots and had no problem. I have had tenderness for 2 days which is going away. My back hurt the first month or two of Evenity. That pain has gone away and it feels much better. So glad I didn't give up on it!
