I think it is inevitable after a certain age, that we lose bone.

I hear you on waiting. If you can be on such and such a drug for such and such a period of time, and ditto for the next, and the next, and you add up the years, it seems we kind of run out of time if we live long, so common sense tells us to maybe wait .

But I hae read and been told that it is better to do the bone builders first (Forteo, Evenity or Tymlos) and then do Reclast to "lock it in" at which point we can maybe take a break with monitoring. That is when I would return to McCormick!

McCormick suggested Tymlos and so did my endo so I was fortunate in that way.
