Forteo vs. Tymlos: Which did you choose?

I have decided to go with Tymlos since it is less $ with my insurance. Also will not go with Prolia. Rx plans never mention it as a option . Also has nothing to do with your income. Get all your ducks in a row when applying. I.E. reasons why you can't have Prolia or Reclast . Any dental issues and have a doctor write a note for you to submit. I haven't started treatment and it will probably be a few more weeks till I do.

Why do you need to address dental issues when you're taking it?
Hi -- I started Tymlos a year ago -- had some nausea in the beginning, but that dissipated. I do the shots just as I go to bed which seems to work best for me. Had my bone scan last month and my t-scores in my spine are all in the normal range. I will be on Tymlose for most of this year -- after that the MD wants me to go on Reclast -- which I won't do. Am looking into Chinese medicine along with diet and exercise. Good luck to you.

@diva Unfortunately I can't think of any dental issues. I will have to check with my transplant team to see if they have any objections to any of these medications. I can do nothing without their input.
