@loriesco , I seem to remember your Mayo Connect name from the Osteoporosis Mayo Connect group. I'm on my 24th month of Forteo and looking at Reclast also. I take Krill oil daily along with VitD/K2 drops. The rest is diet. I track my nutrients via Cronometer.com. Supplement were needed.
I've been tracking my cholesterol since 2007 and have a good trend chart. My cholesterol starting going above normal range after menopause. Honestly, I believe my bones and cholesterol is menopause driven mostly, except for the new Lp(a) score. Now I know there's some genetics driving that. I'm curious your sequence for 5 yr Tymlos/Reclast. Is it 2 yrs Tymlos, 1 yr Reclast, another 2 yrs Tymlos? Also, may I ask your age? Just curious which doctor helped you to get bioidentical HRT? The research I've done re osteoporosis and now cholesterol has most of this connected to estrogen lose.

@leeosteo My sequence is one Reclast, then the following year - two years of Tymlos which will end this fall (2026) the next summer one Reclast and one the next following summer and I should be done. My age is 69. I think my 5 year plan was done a little differently because of my needs. Anyone does the BHRT these days. I'd suggest going to an endocrinologist or women's menopause clinic. I am at UCSD so I use a gal in the menopause/gynocology dept. Dr. MacCaulay. Yes, menopause will do ya in for sure! 😉
