I will be starting with Evenity in two days...has anyone received helpful advice on mitigating some of the side effects of the injections.
I am very anxious about this whole process...since I am a minimalist when it comes to meds! But, realizing that OP is a formidable opponent, I decided to take the leap!

I have not had any noticeable side effects and just had my 11 th shots. Good luck

I finished my 12th round of Evenity injections in early June. The only issue I had was with the 1st injections--extremely sore arms. I have a very high pain tolerance (3 babies natural childbirth), so I was very surprised at how painful my arms were for several days. I couldn't even tolerate laying in bed, so I slept in a recliner for a night or 2 with my arms across my chest.
So for injections 2-12, I asked to have injections in my abdomen. Piece of cake!!! A real blessing!!! Only had minor discomfort at the 2 injection sites and I could easily wear jeans, waisted clothes and lay on my stomach at night to sleep.
Otherwise, I had no side effects and had great improvement in my DEXA scan later in June. I have moved from osteoporosis to ostepenia and began Prolia in July.
Best of luck!

I just completed my year and the only side effects happened in my 3rd month I believe . I had some burning down my neck to my left shoulder and then lower back pain . It wasn’t consistent and I was able to tolerate it .
