Rhonni1225 doing Tymlos shots becomes like brushing your teeth, in my experience. I did better doing it in the morning: others do better in the evening. You can play around with it.

I have low blood pressure normally so I hydrated and sometimes ate something salty. At first I rested for a couple of hours. Then I found that getting up and out helped- maybe activity raised my blood pressure. You should be able to go to work in the morning. Or maybe bedtime will work for you.

As you can tell, some of us had side effects we could not tolerate at full dose and some even at half dose. The pen has 8 clicks and each click is 10mcg. If you have any trouble you can try going down to 2 clicks and work up as tolerated. I got up to 7 clicks (out of 8) and had dramatic gains. Many are fine with full dose but I just wanted to mention that.

I miss my Tymlos! I felt safe on it, and after 7 spinal fractures, haven't had any in 4 years.

So if I try to consistently to give myself injections at 8 p.m., would it be okay if sometimes I did it at 6 p.m. or 10 p.m.?
