Treating Osteoporosis: What works for you?

Keith McCormick's book "The Whole Body Approach to Osteoporosis" is a good resource, but know that he did medication before a natural approach. Dr. Lani Simpson is another resource but she also is going on meds at this point.

With a spine of -3.5 have you considered Tymlos, Forteo or Evenity? I started Tymlos at a low dose (2 clicks of the pen out of 8) and moved up. Side effects fade.

I have several spinal fractures which cause pain and disability. Believe me, you do not want to risk fractures.

Thank you for your reply. You have given me a little hope that perhaps I should try Tymlos injections. I have an upcoming appointment with my Endocrinologist next week and will discuss this with him. I'm just wondering, if you are experiencing any side effects from Tymlos. If you so ... what are you feeling and how you are treating them. Also, the injections should only be taken for 2 years. Does this means the bones are stronger and no longer need treatment?
