@mayblin Thanks for your interest. I have a baseline and a two months marker tests. Doctor did not think any needed after the two months test results. Not sure if that's right but I didn't fight about that one.
At 2 months after my first shot my P1NP almost doubled and my CTX went down by 68%. So that little snippet of data looks good.
Started Evenity 10/16/23 (no prior meds)
CTX 9/22/23 763
CTX 12/18/23 268
P1NP 9/22/23 69
P1NP 12/18/23 130
Note that my previous bone markers were not as high as my baseline markers above. I mean 763 for CTX and 69 for P1NP are both high numbers when not taking any meds. Prior to that my CTX had been in the 200's and then jumped to 400's and then to that number above (763). My P1NP had previously varied between 33 and 50 usually around 40. Maybe I had a silent fracture in the months before starting Evenity? Maybe these two markers jump around like that without medications? My doctor did not comment on the increase in both markers except to say the increase after my Evenity shots was a good sign.

Thank you very much @awfultruth for sharing your treatment experiences. Your bone markers looked great at 2mo Evenity - Dexa will confirm that - keep fingers crossed.

Your serial baseline btms were puzzling indeed. Something might have happened to have an impact. What made you doing the multiple baseline? You were way ahead of the game! I wish I had a baseline done before my treatment.
