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!

@beanieone your doctors know you and others one this forum have had good improvements with Prolia. My doctors are leery of the rebound . I don't know if any of the doctors know about the cumulative effect of lots of Reclast followed by more Reclast vs lots of Reclast followed by Prolia, since both are ant-resorptive. It would help us all to read what your doctors say about this!
