@windyshores So did you go from Tymlos to Forteo? Or Tymlos to Evenity to Forteo? After seeing Dr. Leder's lecture, it's clear that sequencing may be an important consideration where effectiveness is concerned.

Thank you once again for sharing your experiences and the research you've done. You've been incredibly helpful.

@bayhorse I did 2 years Tymlos, 4 months Evenity (half those times I did just one shot, not two, and I was the only one in my doctor's practice to do Evenity after Tymlos) and now Reclast (low dose due to kidney disease and afib).

I am very grateful to Tymlos for my gains. I had the common "acute phase reaction" to Reclast with fever for a week but it has been fine otherwise.

I would not have gone from Tymlos to Forteo because the parathyroid mechanism had clearly waned. But I am going to ask about doing Forteo after this year of Reclast now that Forteo has been approved past two years for some patients. I still have 8 months of Evenity in reserve, so to speak.

My doctors' don't use Prolia unless absolutely necessary.

My question for my doctor in early March is what is the long term plan?!
