@joan26 Like others, expressing sorrow for your injury. I've been on Prolia since 2009—no side effects. Was about to turn the corner to Reclast (not a fan) to seal things off. A bad fall this summer resulted in 8 broken ribs and still recovering. I'm due for Prolia in April, doc says no Prolia—Evenity. I didn't know this could happen so fast, yet I'm afraid of Evenity. Guess this has to be worked out quickly on my end. It's heartbreaking to hear what's happened in your case. My thoughts are with you.

Sorry to hear about your broken ribs!
For what it's worth, I had started Tymlos for one month when it first came out, but daily shots in my tummy stressed me, and I was scared because it was a new drug, so stopped it. After a year or so, I started up again and I am finishing the 17 months just now. Bottom line, I believe it was worth taking the Tymlos. My spine increased density 15%, and hip and wrist 4-6%. I don't no anything about Evinity, but hopefully my experience with taking the "new drug at the time - Tymlos" will ease a bit of your stress if you decide to take your drs. advice with Evinity.
