@beckymel I feel negligent because it has somehow escaped me that my levothyroxine could be contributing to my osteoporosis as could the omeprazole that I took for several years. I am also on prednisone which is a major cause of osteoporosis so I attributed it to that.

I started doing Tymlos injections a couple of weeks ago because my osteoporosis has gotten quite advanced. Unfortunately, there is no drug for osteoporosis without side effects, but I think that's true of all drugs. From what I have heard the percentage of people on drugs for osteoporosis who have serious side-effects are in a small minority.

I guess we all just have to forge ahead with hopes we will not be a part of that small minority with serious side-effects.

@beckymel I take Lanzoprazole (generic Prevacid) and Levothyroxine (generic Synthroud?) too. For years I took both together in the morning but now I take my Levothyroxine in the morning and Lanzoprazole at bedtime (head of bed raised).
