Hi Mayblin. Spine T-Score before Forteo was -4.1 and Femoral neck -2.8. They could not read the lumbar spine after Forteo due to the previous fractures. Femoral neck improved -2.5, no further fractures. Bone scan of spine showed previous fractures in the spine (13) healed well. I started the Forteo again because I was having back spasms and terrified of breaking again. I was to start Evenity, but having trouble getting it covered. Forteo was easily approved for another 2 years. I am thinking now I will just stay on Forteo, as Evenity seems to have more side effects and is very expensive. If my insurance does decide to cover it, they may not re-approve my Forteo. It's pretty bad that these medications cost so much money and all have risks. Forteo seems the least in that regard. Also, with not able to tolerate Prolia or Fosomax, I have a fairly clean slate to fully benefit from Forteo again.
With the black box warning removed from Forteo, you would think there would be more research interest in those of us braving another course of Forteo.
