Prescribed Tymlos after Evenity

Hi @windyshores ,
Actually , my endocrinologist called me today. He is concerned to stop Evenity now because insurance might cancel coverage on Evenity and then don’t approve Tymlos, because they both anabolic . He still insists that my increased pain is due to fractures not a side effect of Evenity. I am thinking to call insurance and ask if they would approve Tymlos in the middle of my treatment. Besides he worries that insurance might not approve Tymlos even I finish all 12 months of Evenity for the same reason. He said that I might have to go on Prolia after Evenity which I completely was against but again he stated that Prolia rarely causes back pain. Not sure if our conversation was that productive . I am going for my MRI next week and if there are no new fractures, I am going to call him back and maybe ask again. All I know that pain I am going through is not sustainable for a long time and something needs to be done.

I would echo the info on Radius Assist though you need an MD to prescribe. Doctors seem nervous to prescribe protocols that aren't well tested. We need more research!

This is a great comment from @awfultruth:
