My T-scores:
-4.7 Lumbar Spine (L1-L4)
-3.4 Left femoral neck
-3.0 Left hip
Age: 56
Crohn's Disease dx'd at age 15 and treated with long term, high dose Prednisone for years.

I've had chronic spine fractures and a broken wrist. My broken wrist went undiagnosed (no matter how much I cried to my docs about it) for 5+ years. It's now a SNAC wrist. (Non Union Advanced Collapse) My bones are currently too fragile for surgery.

I received my 5th Evenity injections yesterday. I get them behind my upper arms and have swelling and pain for a couple of days. Using a hot heating pad on the injection sites when I get home seems to help a lot. This was suggested by my doctor.
The only other side affects that seem to be from Evenity are, headaches, fatigue and rib cage pain.
The side affects are not enough for me to discontinue therapy. I am hopeful that Evenity will work for me and everyone else that's on it! Good luck everyone!

Hi Gina4Bella,

Thank-you for your reply. I hope the Evenity treatments work for you.

Good Luck!

Hi Gina,
I'm 46 years old and have similar T-scores (-4.3). I'm quite nervous about Evenity. I was trying to search to see a follow-up to your final treatments. I saw that you were having severe side effects and took a short break between 9th and 10th doses but I couldn't find any update afterward. Would you be able to share the final results and improvement in T-scores?
