Great news and thank you for sharing!! I am curious with all the calcium from food sources along with Tymlos has your blood calcium levels risen? This (elevated blood calcium) is a known side effect of Tymlos on its own let alone adding lots of calcium to your diet. I had to decrease lots of calcium sources from food as my levels were approaching outer limit due to Tymlos. I know check every 6 months to be sure I’m at 10 or below. I also had good results from Tymlos and have about 7 months to go (I went from -3.0 to -2.6 in spine - so just 5% after a year but I only need to get to 2.4 to be out of OP! Hips are not OP).

It’s nice to hear that you’re getting results. As well moving closer to osteopenia in the spine. Good for you!
I believe you’re referring to Hypercalcemia.
Yes, I get it. It gets checked out every six months. The most interesting thing is that when I have too much of a calcium intake, my urine gets cloudy. I then know to cut back. So it’s been OK for me to adjust it and get 600 mg of calcium a day.
I forgot to mention that I take vitamin D3. When I have blood work done to test my vitamin D level. It comes back around 45. I get another blood work up at the end of this week. I look forward to seeing the results.
