@laurapearl, Hi there and thanks for checking in with Connect again. Your post is very important both for those considering Prolia and others thinking about Tymlos. It looks like you made very good progress (14.4%) over a 10 month period on Tymlos and you paid a pretty tough price to get there. Did you or your clinician avoid bisphosphonates for a reason,..like not able to build bone?

Now, I also see in another post that to get that bone creating potential, patients appear to have modified the Tymlos dosage and adjusted the time. Did you try that? I want to check on the options for dosages, e.g 40mg in the a.m. and 40 more in the p.m. Would that have helped?

Do you have a link to the research about Prolia and brittle bone potential? That would be helpful.

You and I have the same role models.....my mother broke her hip at 81 and never walked or smiled again. I know this industry does not have a definable history with these new medications. That means our feedback is invaluable to others. Check-in with us as you enjoy the freedom of not having osteoporosis. Will you be taking medication for osteopenia? Every contribution is helpful for someone. Find some joy today. Chris
