Considering Forteo

@lisitabelle Hopefully Forteo will help you. It sure worked for me and it has now been 10 years since I suffered a series of 13 compression fractures. I have had no further fractures, so feel Evista/Raloxafine has worked for before in doing a decent Job, and allowing me to benefit from this second course of Teriparatide.

@broken13 Wow! so sorry to hear of the fractures you've dealt with! I'm glad you have had the benefit of the meds. No fractures yet for me. But funny thing....I received the Forteo yesterday but no needles included. I called the pharmacy company this morning. The needles are a separate order so they have to contact the doc who is out of the office till Tuesday to get a prescription for them. Very odd to send out expensive medicine with no way to have it administered. Not a huge deal for me but leaves me shaking my head as to the inefficiency of that but the med is now safely in my frig and I'll start it whenever the needles show up.
