I am going to perform my due diligence in depth before agreeing to any treatment in the future. For now, I plan on more carefully adhering to my nutrition/exercise/supplements plan I was on which improved my scans in 2020. I am still not feeling like I normally do (great) since my first set of Evenity injections. Hopefully, I will be back to “me” soon. I sincerely hope that others who agree to leverage Evenity do not have the side effects that I have experienced and enjoy positive results! Evenity is just not for me.
Many meds use relative risk. I am often puzzled because although relative risk shows seemingly minor changes in bone density, many osteoporosis meds do seem to bring significant improvements to DEXA scores.
The risk of femur fracture and jaw necrosis are lower with Evenity than with bisphosphonates or Prolia. I have been told by my doc that most cases of those side effects are for cancer patients with much higher doses. Cardiac risks are for those with preexisting issues, I believe. Check all this out with your doc!
