mary1951, I applaud your choice. Tymlos had only been suspected of cancer of the bone. The FDA warning has been removed and Tymlos is not longer suspect. It is also, in my opinion, one of two best medications for building strong bone.
I share your fears with Evenity and worry that time will reveal more complications with the heart. I also applaud your choice of mentors. Windyshores really is the best. just to be clear.

@gently is the best!
Every medicine that has come out, has had some unexpected result once on the market. Jaw necrosis and atypical femur fracture with Reclast over too many years, rebound with Prolia, and Evenity is strongly anabolic only in the first part of the year, not the whole year. Luckily the unexpected result with Forteo and Tymlos has been that they have not caused bone cancers!
Evenity came out in 2019. It appears to have dramatic results for many, including my friend. Many don't have side effects or just get tired when Evenity peaks around one week. Joint pain seems to happen for some. I am less concerned about the cardiovascular effects, which have been studied, and think there needs to be more research on other effects of inhibiting sclerostin, since sclerostin is found throughout the body. Effect on B cell immunity, bone marrow edema, are being researched. But it is a good drug. Still my favorite is Tymlos and I miss the feeling of protection I had while on it!
