i have an endocrinologist that treats osteoporosis at Beth Israel. she is the one discouraging me from Evenity in favor of Reclast. i have severe osteoporosis and need a builder med first. and i am super sensitive and i dont think i can survive a years worth of Reclast, or any drug, in one dose. i have an appt with another endo next week for a second opinion. even here in Boston, i am having difficulty finding curious doctors to untangle my knotted health situation. thank you for writing to me , callalloo~~~

I hope the second opinion doctor is helpful and that a fresh perspective, with a new doctor, leads to a treatment plan that you feel comfortable and confident about.

There are infusion drugs that are bisphosphonates that are administered every three months if you are concerned about the yearly infusion of Reclast. One of the quarterly ones is IV pamidronate and the other is IV ibandronate which is Boniva. I don't know much about them but it could be worth speaking to your doctor about them if you are apprehensive about a yearly infusion.
