Anyone taken Evenity (romosozumab) for Osteoporosis?

@sunny65 I sometimes get x-rays when I think I might have fractured. I have learned to wait a little and often it turns out to be muscles. But in this case yes I would get an x-ray.
Are you having massage lying down? I absolutely cannot do that. I sit! The one time I had a massage lying down I felt like I had fractured ribs as well as back!
If you feel better lying on your back it is not likely to be a fracture in my experience. In that kind of situation I use patches: lidocaine, capsaicin, menthol, whatever works for you might help.

@windyshores ,
I always appreciate your advice. My therapist does some muscle massage while I am laying on my back. It’s traveling pain and I am suspecting Evenity. Due to insurance issues I have to wait at least till January 1. The deductible on Tymlos will be two thousand next year. If I start now I have to pay another thousand and it’s not just about money. My doctor says that it might take long time to get approved in the middle and he afraid that insurance cancel coverage for Evenity and with my severe osteoporosis it would be not good. I might still ask him to switch after new year starts. Then I will be after 7 shots. I was going to do x-ray but my pain moved to lower back again and I decided to wait till beginning of December because I have an appointment for MRI. I really desperate to find something non- opioid that could help me with pain. I use 1mg clonazepam at night and this helps me to sleep through the pain. I know that only thing helps me a little bit is 5% lidocaine patches . They are prescription only and my insurance doesn’t cover it. .I have to shop around for better prices. I wish I have doctors like yours. Now I kind of working with two and neither one is worrying about me having Tymlos after Evenity. I also have nice rheumatologist but he don’t know much about Evenity. I afraid that if the sequence is wrong - it makes my bones even worse.
