I’ve just been diagnosed with osteoporosis. Age 59. Male. Unfortunately took significant prednisone which led to a bone density test (results -3.2 hip, wrist. -2.9 spine.). Dr strongly recommended immediate bone regeneration medication. Due to my job (extensive travel) Tymlos was suggested. Not worried about giving daily shots but highly concerned about side effects that will effect quality of live and dealing with them while overseas. In particular, dizziness and headaches. Getting 2nd opinion next week (suspect it will be similar). Grateful for input on severity of side effects.
