I had my first Evenity injections two weeks ago. I am still having severe pain in my lower back, hips and right leg. My doctor doesn’t want me to continue with Evenity. Has anyone else experienced this. If so, what medication did you change to?

Did you have this pain before you started the Evenity or did it start after your first treatment?

I had my third shot 10 days ago and had quite a bit of joint pain in my hips and knees after. It has gradually gotten better, though, and today is almost gone. I’m wondering if this will be the pattern going forward for the remainder of my treatment.

Has anyone read that there are indications that after six months of Evenity you reap 90% of the effectiveness of the medication?
