Thanks for your response. You said it has been 2.5 years ago since you stopped medications. Are you having a DEXA soon to see if you've held onto the small improvements you made?
So you were sick from the Reclast for 1.5 years? If so, I am so sorry. Are they still monitoring you? Have they told you when you'll need to take the meds again? Or have you decided you are done based on how badly you felt on the meds the last go round?

Yes, I am due for another scan now.
I reacted to the Reclast with severe joint pain and in one knee in particular. It swelled up and I couldn’t put weight on it for almost a week- no prior knee or joint issues! It gradually got better after a few months but it was over a year until I felt better.

I’m sure my endocrinologist will try to encourage me to try Tymlos. She suggested Osteostrong which I have been doing for a year.

I might try Tymlos because you can stop it and it’s gone pretty quickly unlike Reclast.
