Hi (again) @windyshores and @bonnies1999

Windy, please don’t use the word “break” when discussing OP (lol, 😂 ). I had a Reclast infusion on July 25 - about 28 days after my last Evenity shots. When I made the appointment to switch docs, I gave the scheduler my history about “needing a follow up med pretty quickly” and they fit me right in. After the initial lengthy consult and quite a few labs, I was able to have the Reclast scheduled within a week.

I am surprised to hear that your docs don’t recommend Prolia (mine tried to shove it down my throat) - if I remember, you received Reclast on an abbreviated schedule, four visits, correct?

One thing about Reclast that has been established: The infusion needs to be given slooooooowwwwwwly. When I asked the infusion nurse about the timeframe, she said, “about fifteen minutes” which is about what I remember about previous infusions. However, my doc mentioned that the infusion should be given over a span of about 45-60 minutes. Happily I heard and remembered that or I would’ve had a 15 minute infusion.

@bonnies1999, did your doc prescribe only six months on Evenity? You should likely schedule a visit with your doc asap to see what’s next to keep your Evenity gains intact.

Cheers!
