@kathleenintexas I think we saw the same chiropractor! He also told me to go on Tymlos. I like him because he has been on meds but also has a lot of knowledge of "whole body" approaches.

I have fractures (7 in all) so I get it! Tymlos has made me so much stronger. My kids cannot get over it. I have my 18 month DEXA in March.

I could not handle a full dose (landed in ER) and so I restarted at 2 clicks of the pen: a full dose is 8. I ramped up and have been at 7 for more than a year. Side effects fade. I have had absolutely no side effects for months.

Hope it helps! My doc will put me on Reclast, possibly a partial dose at first, and if things stay stable after I "lock in" gains, I can take a break. I am also going to ask about Evenity if my DEXA hasn't improved enough. He leaves choices up to me which I appreciate.
