@cpog Hope it goes well! I did find if I was relaxed, well hydrated and stayed seated for at least 15 minutes after my Tymlos it helped (and after the first week the few minor side effects I had noticed stopped). I will say I stressed ALOT on what to do, but knew that not taking meds wasn't an option for me and wanted to build up some bone before going on something to "maintain". Once I started the Tymlos and knew I had a plan I felt confident going back to my life as usual (admittedly I'm a little more cautious in karate and skiing, but not by much!).

@misst1970 my injection went really well yesterday! I had an appointment with my doctor’s office and an RN demonstrated on an example injector pen. I went over everything and then I had brought my pen so he walked me through the injection and it went really well! They made me stay there for 15 minutes in case I had any side effects and I was a touch lightheaded, just sitting there, but it may have been nerves as well and I was fine when I got up. I opted to do my injections at night so my second will be this evening. I had some minor headaches last evening, during the night and today, but Tylenol helped that. All in all, I feel really good and even did some walking on my treadmill today and some exercising. Thanks for all of your suggestions.

@misst1970 Thank you so much for your comments....I am scared to death to start Tymlos after the negative statin deal and getting PMR (maybe) Now the prednisone has lowered my T scores but it also is supposed to degrade the bone you have. I do not want to be left standing at the "medication station". Everyone here is so helpful, I sincerely appreciate it!
