I have done Tymlos, Forteo, Evenity (12 months), and one Reclast infusion. The Tymlos was only five months- five months on Forteo also. The short courses of those drugs was a cost issue.
After the Forteo and Tymlos, I had bone improvement. After the Evenity, also significant improvements.
I haven’t had side effects from any of these drugs.
I realize that I may be having side effects without obvious symptoms.
But, I had to do something and as I, too, have GERD, it couldn’t be oral meds.
The GERD is the worst - symptom wise - thing I’ve ever had. Night before last, I had to talk myself down when I wanted to go to ER.
Felt like a heart attack. Nope. GERD.

Please be careful with GERD. My grandfather thought he had heartburn and died from a heart attack. My granddaughter's father in law thought he had heartburn...nope. His son talked him into calling 911. It was a heart attack.
Thanks for the info about your experiences with the drugs. My main concern was how much ibuprofen I take. I haven't taken over the 600MG the insert stresses and my spine doc, who has never said anything about my osteoporosis, said I can double that and take it forever. My doc pushing the reclast said basically the same thing. That's not the info that I am getting from other sources, so I don't know. I've never had GERD issues and asked for the pills and she said if I'm worried about NSAIDS, that the pills are the same as reclast. My argument is that at least I can stop the pills You can't stop a once a year infusion. I'm leaning towards doing nothing as far as the drugs go and upping my strength exercises.
