Reply to @contentandwell my side effects are in the text above. I hope you can find it. I truly would love your opinion and anyone else who would like to chime in. I need to make a decision. Besides that, I am approved by Radius for the full 18 months free sent to my home. I hate to miss out on that. Somewhere I read they gave their injection and then did their exercise routine and bypassed any heart problems. Then went to bed. Someone else was only taking 1/2 dose every other day. I wonder how that works. Anyone with suggestions to try is welcome. I really would like to continue with the Tymlos if at all possible without any real heart damage. Thanks to all for caring and stay healthy. KLH

@kilh I have heard of people building up to a full dose by only doing a half dose initially. That's something you would need to check with the doctor who has prescribed Tymlos. I think that may be your best plan of action.

I never had BP or heart rate problems from it. My heart rate was slightly elevated, as in the 70s vs 60s where it usually is but that was not a problem and it quickly came back down again.

@bunky44 I agree, most women don't get nearly the suggested amount of protein. When I discovered that was important I started tracking mine. I thought I ate a lot of protein but it turned out I was well below the recommended amount. I now am very conscious of it and track both protein and calcium with myfitnesspal, along with other nutrients that I have to be conscious of like sodium.
