Tymlos, then Evenity, then Reclast?

Hi, I'm currently on my second month of Tymlos. No major side effects yet although I question my decision to take it everyday (spine score -3.2). Just wondering how you feel about Tymlos after 18 months? I'm also worried about the follow up (Evenity, Reclast, etc) and basically being on meds for the foreseeable future. I'm 64. Still researching and getting more testing (TBS, REMS, bone markers). The PA I'm working with ran all the necessary blood work which was fine. My osteoporosis is likely due to menopause, not taking HRT and (to be honest) not having the best diet in my younger years.

@rileyf Overall, I am pretty pleased with my DEXA results on Tymlos. My lumbar spine went from -2.7 to -1.5, although my hips didn’t move at all and have stayed at -1.5 (my PA said Year 2 is when hips improve so we will see). Bc my osteo will likely keep progressing, I plan to fight for Evenity to build more bone before doing Reclast. Otherwise, when I have to build more up in the future, drugs like Evenity and Forteo will be less effective bc of sub-optimal sequencing. Best of luck to you and everyone else on this journey.
