I was one of those who got a compression fracture skiing at 62, and found out I have osteoporosis. I took Evenity for 8/12 months and had side effects and stopped before finishing the year. I then had a Reclast infusion and also felt crappy for about a year and a half.
That was 2.5 years ago. No more fractures though and I healed up on my own from the first one-But no more skiing! Still do lots of walking and exercising.
I had some improvement on dexa-scan but nothing overwhelming!
I have been going to Osteostrong the past year so hope to see where things are soon.
But I agree the options don’t seem very appealing! I’m now 66. I am interested in your question too.
