well I already had 1 year of evenity with zero side effects and 22.8% gain in spine and 9% hip. the first year of alendronate held the gains and even increased them and the second year they began to decline. I have zero cardiac issues and had a coronary calcium score which was zero. I have exercised my entire life and continue to do so. A second round of evenity was recommended. This time I may follow with ONE dose of Prolia followed by reclast. Prolia concerns me greatly because of the rebound if you ever stop. I’m a ‘young’ 69 so not ready to commit to a lifetime of Prolia. Atypical femur fractures as well as osteo necrosis of the jaw concerns me or the need for dental work later as sadly I do have many crowns that are healthy now but not sure about the future. Best to you

@hikernurse Good for you, I am glad you did not have any issues with Evenity. But with all of these bone medications, you probably have to be on them for life.

@hikernurse
These are the same concerns I have. I am starting on Tymlos tomorrow …my first drug for Osteoporosis-4.8 tscore
