@beanieone I was told by McCormick and doctors that at the end of Evenity only CTX is relevant. McCormick says CTX should not be too low (under 100?) but my endos don't seem concerned about this. Are you doing Reclast or Fosamax or???? Congrats on gains!

Thanks @windyshores, I kind of figured as much about the CTX, etc.

Both docs who gave opinions on post-Evenity/Tymlos thought Prolia was the preferred therapy as I’ve had more than my share of lifetime Reclast infusions. I pretty much refused Prolia because I’m only 69 (sounds funny to say I’m “only” 69) and have had great results with Reclast in the past.

The second doc said he could agree with my decision as long as everything was in order - as spontaneous femur fractures can be an adverse effect of Reclast (over)usage, he ordered baseline x-rays of both femurs to monitor and make sure there are not current problems.

Thanks for your “congrats” on my gains; hopefully I can keep them for years to come!

Cheers!
