Before you took Forteo, were you on other Osteoporosis medicines such as Fosamax or Reclast? The reason I asked is that I have heard that prior use of those medicines may decrease the effectiveness of Forteo.

I had not been on Fosamax or any other Osteo drugs. I had read about other medications decreasing the effectiveness of Forteo, so that why I requested to go onto Forteo first. I did follow up with a Reclast infusion after the two years on Forteo was completed. But now that the two-year limited use has been lifted I’m going to see if I can go back on it.
