If this helps I was on alendronate for 5 years, forteo 2 yr., evenity for 1 yr., Prolia for 2+ yr.
Never any side effects.
Hope you find a great doc who can guide you through this.

@gravity3 Did you take those drugs in the order in which you listed them? I'm on Tymlos and looking to the near future for my follow up drug. I mentioned Evenity to my rheumatologist but he did not seem to have much experience with patients who followed Tymlos with Evenity. My heart is healthy so I am leaning towards Evenity, but I worry that it too has a history of osteonecrosis. May I ask, are you currently on Prolia?

@gravity3
Thank you. But I am very sensitive and my previous Rheumatologist said if I can’t tolerate Prolia , then I go to the next drug (I think fortes he said) if that doesn’t work for me then I can’t take any. I know I have to have treatment of some kind due to severe osteoporosis with a fragility fracture but I don’t want to deal with rebound effect with teeth and fractures. Again unfortunately I don’t trust any of those drugs.
