My Experience on Evenity for Treating Osteoporosis

Well my endo got back to me and essentially he said Evenity may be causing the joint issues but it may be an underlying degenerative arthritis. Well I am older so having some arthritis would not be surprising. But my question to anyone who had joint pain: did it get better or less of an issue over time, did it lessen after you finished Evenity? It's the lack of information that is maddening. I will give Amgen a call and see what they have to say but I'm not expecting much from them. I guess my real concern is that the joint pain will be permanent or take a long time to resolve.
I will be seeing a ortho guy about a sore wrist (cyst) and see what he has to say.
To be clear the joint pain isn't debilitating just sore.

Follow up I posted this in the other forum but decided to include it here. I took 8 shots but was having increased stiffness/pain in my hands and wrist over about 3 months (shots 5-8) but I decided on the 9th. Mainly because of the advantages of Evenity to strengthen my bones I really wanted to complete the 12 months. Well, 3 days after the injection #9 the stiffness started up again and the pain in my hands/wrists has increased so I will be discontinuing it. Though I won't have the 12 months I'll have 9 months of gains which is good and will follow up, probably, with Reclast.
