After completing my first year on Evenity, my scans improved. The next three years I had Reclast infusions to try to maintain my bone growth. Then the next year was a wait and see. Unfortunately, my next scans once again showed a decrease therefore, I have started Evenity once again. I am on my second month and all going ok. Only side effect has been a slight heachache, but I take Tylenol and drink lots of water.
I am confused as to "as a way to pay for it".....for CAD?

@arlene7
Thank you . I'm pretty surprised to read you and others taking these meds for years. I had no idea that could happen.
Let me explain my message - CAD is coronary artery disease. thankfully I haven't had heart attack or stroke. the warning on evenity almost sounds like it could cause one.
about getting the money to pay for it, my dr said most insurance doesn't cover it & it's over $1000/mo. I said it would cut into my savings a lot & she said 'but only for 12 mo'. I said maybe I could find a grant to help pay for it like we get to pay for husbands chemo pills.
Now I'm reading some of you have gone on & off of it and had to take other meds too.
I know all meds have their potential side effects but evenity list some scary ones - maybe im overreacting
