Hi Tina. Still waiting to hear back from the doctor regarding any assistance I can have with the cost
But as I said I need to do something to prevent fractures that may be deadly and I do not want to take an injection daily so I believe that evenity is my best choice if I can afford it that is. I will keep in touch with you once I try it and tell you how I make out.

@dgm123s I completely understand your reluctance to do a daily injection but it honestly is not a big deal at all. Most nights the shot is painless and the whole thing takes about a minute.

Just something to consider if you are not a candidate for evenity.

Call Amgen. Docs don't know much about financial assistance, but hope yours does. Amgen can refer you to a foundation for help with cost. Your health insurance may also have ideas. Our state also has a program to help with meds.
