Has anyone been using Tymlos?

I had the same reaction to Boniva and all similar medicines. Even taking Calcium affects my jaw bones. That is my concern with Tymlos? Does anyone know of any jaw problems with taking it?

@txmom Hello and welcome to Connect. Our mission as mentors is to do whatever we can to improve the quality of life of our members. We cannot diagnose or prescribe because we are not medically trained. What we can do is share our personal experiences as well as introduce you to others who are willing to exchange information. To that end, it would be helpful if you could share a bit of your Osteoporosis story, There seem to be three standard questions. How old are you? What did your scan numbers tell you? What has your clinician recommended for you?

I am glad to see someone else in this osteoporosis discussion who has walked down my Boniva path. I sometimes thought I might be imagining the intensity of the pain. I remember wanting all my teeth to be pulled. Thank goodness my PCP believed me and took immediate action.

So, if I have this right......you have three choices. Tymlos, Forteo, or Evenity? Would you be comfortable telling me why you chose Tymlos? And I will let you know that I had no jaw issues with Tymlos which I recently finished after two years. Other than the squeezy tummy for a few days, I had no side effects. I have migrated to Prolia and have only had one injection. So far....no side effects.

By the way, have you had any fractures?

May you be content and at ease.
