I have been on Evenity for almost a year and just had a bone density test so not sure if it works. My insurance does pay for it though. I will follow up with the results of my test. I have lost almost 4 inches of height so I wish there was something that would help. I also have severe scoliosis which affects my balance. I need a new spine!!!

Hoping that the test results show an improvement! Also you mentioned that you have lost 4 inches in height...is this after taking Evenity or just in a course of years? What other measures (exercise, supplements) are you doing?

I just found this email thread and am interested if you ended up taking Evenity. I also have Osteoporosis and severe lumbar scoliosis along with Ankylosing Spondylitis. I need to have a major back surgery too. It sounds like you need the same. I’m just getting cleared by my cardiologist to take Evenity so I can have surgery in 6 months. I’m wondering how you made out.
Thanks so much.

I liked your comment being I have the same kind of situation. I also have scoliosis and have fractured my spine recently. I know how it does effect the balance too. I am starting physical therapy soon and have started senior exercises at a local gym. I want to choose Evenity also for the shots. I have been scared of the side effects and Evenity appears to be a better choice with all the other medicines out there. I have yet to make an appointment for the shot. Did you have a bone density test since taking the shot? Does improvement show up on the Bone Density test I wonder? Do you know? Thanks again for your comment.

I have scoliosis too. I have received 11 of my 12 Evenity injections and I'm looking forward to my next dexa. Wish me luck.

Did you experience side effects once you started the Evenity? If you did, how long before the side effects went away?
Thank you
