I did....Because I go to an infusion center for injections, it is covered by Medicare Part B and co-insurance (after a deductible of $257), therefore, my cost is $0.

My honest opinion is that it all depends on each individual's specific situation, medically and financially. My family has a history of heart disease, but fortunately, I have been managing my high cholesterol for years and have tried to maintain a healthy diet, etc. When I decided to take Evenity, I spoke with my cardiologist, who had treated both my parents as well, and he agreed I should take it. Therefore, it made my decision easier. Yes, I was afraid of the side effects; however, I felt I should try. Evenity did help my bones, so it worked for me. Hoping my second go-around with Evenity will be successful as well.

Please let me know if you would like more information.

Thank you so much. I’ve had a couple people, one a retired cardiologist, not in favor of me getting Evenity because of coronary artery disease. I’m so happy to hear you did well and have improvement and no side effects. 🙂 I haven’t heard from my cardiologist.
I wish I wasn’t scared of treatment. Dr said if not Evenity then Reclast. All this mention of jaw pain & other stuff.

@arlene7 Glad Evenity has helped you and hope the second round helps even more. I have still not decided what I am going to do about these drugs for Osteoporosis. I have struggled with seizures for 20yrs after a TBI. I have refused those drugs also after trying various ones for 8yrs which did not help & some made the seizures worse.
