@nycmusic, hi.
You could take Forteo every other day.
Tkdesign wants to start with a low dose until she finds out that there are no side effects (or are) at 20mcg. Forteo doesn't build in your system, so every other day wouldn't directly her concern. Your point is well thought, in that it might give your body more time to adjust, alternatively it might take forever or make it unable to adjust. Taken every other day on a permanent basis would build bone, more slowly, alas. There have been no clinical trials at with this design. Looking forward to tomorrow when you didn't have to inject might encourage a person to bear the effects for a day.
