@jennirdh that's awful! Did the doctor warn you there may be a rebound effect? I started Tymlos yesterday. I wasn't told about any rebound effect with it, just that it's for either 18 months or two years, then you have to stop and can't go back on it again. If it builds back some bone density, but then it gets worse after, then it's just bought me a few years I guess. I wish I could go with something like Algae Cal, I felt a bit like I had the flu last night.

Hi! It was the rebound from Prolia injections that got me in trouble. The Tymlos is new to me, too, but I understand that I will go on something maintenance-wise after the 18-24 months is up.
I will tell you that from this wonderful site I got the idea to inject Tymlos in the morning and it’s SO much better for me. You’re up and doing things already and not trying to relax at night and feeling yucky with it. I am also on half dose and working my way up.
Best of luck to you!!

I will start tymlos on Monday and scared to death. I am 66 and very active. I started with osteopenia at age 46 with my right hip. Changed my food, eliminated all white bread etc and had no issues. Each bone density got worse and worse. Have no pain but scores are osteoporosis.
