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

@passerby I have refused all Osteo drugs for 30 years the Drs have wanted me to take. I am glad I have refused them as I dont know where I would be now if I did not refuse them. They say you can only take certain drugs before they start to do the opposite from what i have researched over the years. Evenity is no different I researched and was told by the Endocrinologist you can only take it for 1 year.
