Should I go on Envenity, Forteo, or wait?

@gently , the Dr has me scheduled to recheck P1NP again in a few months to make sure my body is still responding to Tymlos. It was 155 right after I started Tymlos in Oct 25, and 250 in January 26 and 244 a week ago. Not sure how good that is, but the Dr was satisfied.

perfect. CTX is a measure of bone dissolution and P1NP a measure of bone acquisition. We like to look at them in relation to each other to be certain that we are gaining more than we are losing. 400pg/mL to 155/mcg/L 821 pg/ mL to 244mcg/L both sets look great, interestingly. You may have had a rapid response to Tymlos and/or you may have been building bone when you began the medication. Either way Tymlos has greatly increased your bone turnover with the advantage of bone building over bone resorption.
You might look at the Lucas video. https://www.youtube.com/watch
