Any pre-injection tips for Tymlos?

I actually switched to morning. When I did it at night I woke up with a headache. Once injecting in the morning, at first I rested for a couple of hours but as time went on, I found that I did better getting up and even going out.. I have low blood pressure so perhaps that activity raised it.
Everyone is different!
The hydrating and eating salty stuff is for low blood pressure. I might have mentioned it awhile ago because I was having lower bp after Tymlos, and had low bp to start with. You can get a home blood pressure cuff. If your blood pressure stays fine, there might be no need to do those things.
I have to say I miss Tymlos. I felt safe- no fractures in those two years (I have 7 spinal fractures) and I think my pain level was good, not sure why. Good luck!

I am so sorry that you have had to endure 7 fractures! Yet, you are on this site generously encouraging and giving of your experiences, to help others. Absolutely inspiring. Thank you for your encouragement that Tymlos was a good thing for you. It helps a lot!

Thank you for the input! I tend to have low blood pressure as well, so I will definitely use a blood pressure cuff and see what happens! How did you transition from taking it at night to taking in the morning (ie did you skip a day then resume in the morning?)? Just in case I need to do the same thing…..(I live in a very very hot climate and if I am going to get my walk in it has to be at sunrise. I guess I could join a gym for the treadmill but I really like going outside first thing in the morning! So, I was thinking of trying nighttime initially and seeing how it goes…)
