Forteo vs. Tymlos: Which did you choose?

I'm tolerating some of the symptoms that are less than ideal too, but finally called the Tymlos helpline/RN Pharma folks as I am still having neuropathy/pain/tingling in my toes and feet and don't want the fall risk. They said there shouldn't be a connection at all w/Tymlos, side effect wise...and also helped clarify that the injections need to remain in the abdomen (not the thigh like Forteo) as their trials for efficacy were all using abdomen...So I too am hoping they'll just 'go away' but may ask a neurologist next as I don't want to have permanent neuropathy, being very athletic/active a walker, etc....seems like an increased fall risk, which kinda goes against the purpose!

I am on Forteo, 20 months now, and all the injections are in my abdomen. Did the thigh used to be a requirement?
