My Mom started Evenity shots November 2020. She is 84 and has "horrible" bones. Just prior to starting Evenity, she had numerous fractures. Although the side effects scare me, we felt we did not have a choice but to start her on the medication. She had Prolia shots for years, apparently it was not doing the trick. She's always drank lots of milk, takes calcium supplements, magnesium and D3. We knew we had to do something different or she would continue to have fractures. After 3 months it seems to be helping. She fell three weeks ago and did NOT fracture any bones. So far, she does not appear to have any major side effects. We pray that continues.

Great to hear that your mom has been doing well on Evenity. I started in June, 2020 and so far so good as well. I will take new scans in May to see the improvements and then I would assume discuss ongoing maintenance since Evenity is only for one year. I also take Vitamin D3 and trying to get my calcium through foods, etc. Hoping your mom continues to do well.

This is encouraging, I am 60 and have had several fractures. Just started Evenity hoping I will get my mobility back. I was very active before this snuck up on me.

How is she doing now?
