Hello @windyshores, you may know from previous posts Reclast was my horror med. However, it's the FIRST drug I ever took for osteoporosis. I'm unsure my reaction to ('my horror drug') was nothing more than a bad match or my body rebelling anything. A first timer on meds for this condition, maybe I should have been advised to take Prolia first, Reclast 2nd to 'lock in' my progress and as my numbers (hopefully go up) add Evenity. Unfortunately the Reclast side effects led me to a year of nothing, my choice.

Having read protocol from experienced people like yourself, and others, I see things differently.
It was backwards—taking Reclast first then Prolia should NOT have been my treatment plan. Evenity was never mentioned in that mix. I'm encouraged hearing that one can "take breaks or stop Prolia" weren't great.ones. I wasn't given that option—Reclast or nothing. I was told by my doc I wasn't a good candidate with other meds I'm on and would disrupt their work.

For many good reasons, I've sought out other consult doctors who suggest alternatives, mine right now: Reclast, then Prolia followed by counts, Evenity or Tymlos, too iffy choice in my case, is where I now stand. Thank you for sharing your wide experiences here, it's made a big difference for me. Still 1 month and 3 consults to decide—praying I choose the right path for us all. I'll never know unless I try something, right?! C

I don't know or remember your DEXA scores. Why are Tymlos and Evenity "iffy"? Just curious...
