@migizii I was under the impression that only Forteo and Tymlos, and the newer drug, Evenity? improved bone density. That's interesting to hear that Prolia does also. I purposely chose to go with Tymlos because at my bone density level I need improvement. Starting it has gotten delayed a few times but it looks like it's "a go" tomorrow. I have an appointment with the helper from Tymlos for my first shot. I have to admit, I'm sort of nervous. Not so much about giving myself the shots, but about potential side-effects.

My bone density got substantially worse in the last year despite doing all of the things that are recommended to do naturally. Last year I would have gone on a bone maintenance drug but that got delayed and then the pandemic really put things off so here I am now, a year later.

@contentandwell Hi JK,
I'm looking forward to hearing from you after your first month of treatment to see what side effects if any, you experience with this drug. I hope it works well for you without any effects.

@jk. I was on Tymlos twice for about 4 months at a time but would have to stop due to having increased pain in my legs. I had tried Forteo a number of years ago but that was unsuccessful due to getting migraines. I became very ill from my only Reclast injection. Thus far, IV Boniva worked for awhile and Prolia have been my only successful interventions.I don’t know what the future will hold once I can’t take Prolia any longer, but I am having better DEXA scores. Yes, I also had no success with only natural supports when first diagnosed. I hope you can proceed now with your journey.
