Good evening @mj20 I haven't had a chance to say "Hello". I am the mentor working with this new group, Osteoporosis & Bone Health. I am so glad we have our own group and our own space now. And thanks to you also @windyshores. You truly are a kind and helpful person with lots of experience.

I think I too would run the other way if I had to have 12 injections a day for 19 days. However, I did two years of Tymlos without a whimper. Why? My body can't handle large doses that are supposed to last a month or 6 months or even a year. When I calculate the half-life of the dosage, I realize why my tolerance difficulties come in the first half. I am simply way overdosed. So daily injections (gentle, minimal ones) are perfect for me.

Good luck with your decision outcome. It is great that as we live longer, we now have medications that help our bones stay strong. Please drop in and share how you are doing. That is the way we can all help each other.

May you be safe, protected, and free from inner and outer harm.
Chris

Thank you so much, Chris. Maybe I should have done the Forteo, as she had originally recommended. The decision is way to big for me! You do make good sense with the large dosage at one time. . Did you try having an infusion of Reclast? I'm so upset with all of this.
