Hello Fellow (alumni) Mentor! @cynaburst, it's good to see you here.
I remember when I first joined Connect and read everything you wrote. You gave me something to hold on to when I felt so alone and scared...and faced open heart surgery.

I have terrible osteoporosis, and take nothing, because for me what I took, nothing worked and the side effects from some drugs were not something I wanted to live with. I broke both bones in my left wrist and had unsuccessful surgery.
I seem to get worse each year at my Dexa scan, but I keep walking like a fiend and trying to stay as healthy as I can.
There's a whole osteoporosis group on Connect, but I have not participated.
There is so much controversy surrounding meds vs no meds, which med vs natural approach, I steered clear.
Have you talked to your cardiologist about side effects with Tymlos and HCM? Are you aware of any? I read a little bit and it doesn't state specific contraindications with HCM, but does say you should inform your provider before starting it.
