Treating Osteoporosis: What works for you?

I had osteoporosis for 14 years without medication because I reacted to biphosphonates and had heart issues with Forteo (afib). After fracturing my spine in a few places, I have gone on Tymlos which has side effects that improve over time (I started with low dose) and is tolerable. I want to do Evenity after Tymlos. I am curious why you are considering Evenity rather than Tymlos or Forteo...The latter do not suppress bone turnover, Evenity does, though to a lesser degree than Prolia and biphosphonates.

@rashida, @windyshores
This is just an FYI to both of you that I recently completed two years of Tymlos because of a pretty severe reaction to Boniva. I was "forced" to then transfer to Prolia because all the other "protectors" are bisphosphonates.

May we all be safe, protected, and free from inner and outer harm.
