Hi! I just discovered this group yesterday and appreciate all your comments. I had 4 stress fractures in 6 months two years ago. I was put on Forteo and will be finishing the 2 years in March. My endocrinologist says I need to followup with another drug. He suggested reclast or prolia. I am concerned about all the side effects and not being able to stop and especially the horror stories of fractures after prolia. Has anyone actually tried the Evinity after Forteo (is it allowed)? Dr said I could try the Fosomax for awhile if I am unsure. I am not only concerned about muscle/joint pain in that I am an avid walker. And when I can't do that with family and friends, (when I had stress fractures for a year), I suffered a lot of depression because of lack of quality of life. I agree with the other ladies who said they would rather have some quality of life vs quantity of life. Any suggestions to the follow-up to Forteo? Thanks!!!

I watched a masterclass video with Dr. Lani Simpson and her guest did Evenity after Forteo (or Tymlos, I forget which). They said it could be helpful, but doing Forteo after Evenity would not be as helpful so sequence was important.

I am finishing Tymlos in March and my doc is going to do 1/4 dose Reclast with slow infusion (and lots of hydration, maybe premedication) to see how I handle it. Fosamax is not possible for those of us with GERD but maybe you can take it.

I have a total of 7 fractures. Yesterday I reached up for something on a shelf in the store and have bad pain, and am always afraid I fractured something else. I am afraid to find out!
