@pvf1943: On June I, 2025 I started Evenity injections; but, prior to that I took Risedronate 1/mo for 3 1/2 yrs. Begged for DEXA scan to check progress and had 0 bone density improvement… both Lumbar and Hip bone density was worse!! My doc was shocked. I started researching the options available to build back stable bone.
To be honest it feels like a crap shoot, but after checking with all 4 of my specialists they said Evenity was ok to try. I just hate to continue down this uncertain osteoporosis road! However, I will ask my prescribing doc next month for bone marker testing to prove to myself I am gaining bone. My hope is that if I gain enough bone marrow I will take a hiatus from this circus. dbamos1945
