Hi @janflute. I am doing my next Reclast in two days and will let everyone know.

Tymlos stopped working for me before 18 months. I hope your doc will make sure it is working or at least maintaining in the third year.

I did Evenity after Tymlos but only for 4 months.

If the Forteo is not working according to testing, can you just go right to Fosamax?

Hi Windy. This posting raised a question for me in light of your endo not doing bone markers. How was it determined that Tymlos stopped working after 18 mos?

I think I recall you saying previously you stopped Evenity because its bone-building mechanism is available only in the 1st 6 months of treatment but why not continue Evenity for 2 more months?

Hey Windy,
I still have my first doses of Tymlosnin my fridge and haven’t started them yet after 3 weeks. I’m trying to confirm that you use titration with this med. I’m scared crazy to inject myself not knowing how severe a reaction I may have.I live alone. My own rheumatologist who prescribed the drug isn’t clear on whether you can start with a lesser dose and build up to the 80mg possible? So I see my PCP next week and hope I can get some clarity.
