@255anny, you are in a tough position!!! 2 separate sequences to think of. Evenity to a relay then a relay drug back to evenity. There might not be studies available with good number of subjects to show powerful statistical significance since evenity is relatively new. If it is just evenity--> prolia or reclast to be considered, then it'd be a lot easier. Obviously your endo has another round of evenity in mind for you after the relay drug. Hence not only you need to pick a relay drug that you are comfortable with, you need also think about which sequence (prolia -->evenity, or reclast --> evenity) will turn out better, on top of the worrying about potential prolia rebound effect. Toooo much! There are couple publications I read re evenity after 1-2 shots of prolia. It seems bmd increases were dampened but there were increase. There was a paper by Japanese researchers for evenity after reclast but results weren't clearly tabulated since there were other bps involved.

Are we allowed more Evenity after a year? That's another reason I stopped at 4 months- so I can have it in the future. Maybe that was not necessary.

I'm in a tough spot but maybe I'm making it tougher than I should. The easiest decision would be Reclast next, then with my Dr figure out the next drug. I'm so tired of doing nothing but reading about this. One study always leads to another... If I chose Reclast as my next treatment drug this October, is that usually given for 3 years straight? I'm worried about the side effects and can I make it thru 3 infusions.
I can't figure out what this study is reporting, it seems vague or else just not stating their conclusion.
