@laujodrik I certainly understand your concerns. As I've mentioned, you can start out on a lower dose of Tymlos if your doctor is amenable to that. Have you looked into Radius Assist? I don't know if you would be eligible, but they do offer financial assistance for those who meet their criteria for eligibility. Best wishes to you!

I’m not rich, but too rich to go on assistance. I can handle the cost. I heard that Forteo has a genetic now. When I checked online the Tymlos would be close to $3,000 a month and the Forto was $600 with GoodRx. It’s going to be a bit of a struggle considering I am retired. Thank goodness I was a saver. I owned a travel agency. I don’t have a choice and without a bone density meds I’ll start breaking bones. I will ask my dr if I can start on a lower amount for now. When I get anxious my heart rate goes up and I heard with these meds they go up too.

I don’t think I would qualify for Radius Assistance. Who are they affiliated with? I saw with Forteo years ago I couldn’t have more than an adjusted income $37,000.00.
