The reason why you cant take Tymlos or Forteo after radiation is that it causes bone cancer. I do not think they have found that to be the case with Evenity. But its such a new drug. Like others here, I have severe osteoporosis (-3.5) had some radiation after a lumpectomy and I also had a heart attack in 2010, so my options are limited. I am debating prolia or Evenity and talking to my cardiologist and other doctors about which one. No bone breaks yet, Im 63.
I didn’t have chemo, just Letrozole. My Dexa scan scores greatly worsened 3 years into taking it. I don’t remember why my rheumatologist said you can’t have Forteo or Tymlos after radiation but I see him later today and I’ll ask again.
My fractures started right after my second Prolia shot. I did not have any fractures prior to taking Prolia. No one will say Prolia caused them but they all agree it didn’t help prevent them. Thanks for your feedback.
