I just received my first Evenity treatment yesterday in my arms. After agonizing about this decision I went ahead as I have significant bone loss at 66 despite being very active. I was surprised to wake up several times in the night with arm pain where just a brush of a touch was painful. The medicine was warmed per protocol with the left arm still burning at injection and the right better yet later now the right is so much more painful. I am not encouraged to hear that it doesn't get better as you go. And my pain tolerance is fairly high. Appreciate the candid posts as feel that honest info may be hard to come by.

@minnied I have had 8 Evenity treatments and for me the first three had side effects of very sore arms. My body must be adjusting to the injections since as I have no more soreness or pain in my arms. The nurse who does the injections always rubs my arm afterwards to help disperse the medication away from the injection site. Another nurse told me some patients prefer to have the injections in their belly. Best wishes for you to have good results and less side effects going forward.
