First Evenity Dose then Denial

Maybe I'm misreading the original post. But if she's already had a dose of Evinity, to change to Tymlos seems to conflict with the posts noting that of one can't follow Evenity with Tymlos.

It would be worth getting a second medical opinion about this from an endocrinologist. And maybe, IF staying on Evenity is a good idea, a different doctor would be willing to work with your insurer to get it covered. There are cases when a patient having adverse effects from a drug the insurer does not cover, cam also be denied coverage to treat or deal with those side effects or any complications. That happened to a friend of mine who ended up in litigation over it. Insurers have a far higher responsibility for drugs they cover and any unintended consequences.

Thank you callalloo. It would be extremely helpful to know if there is documented warnings to not take Tymlos after Evenity. Might help with an appeal. We tried but did not get a referral for a rheumatologist. Didn't try for an endocrinologist. Considering a second opinion or a change of insurance. Learning more each day but unfortunately not fast enough to keep up with all this.
