Not yet. My doctor wants me on Evinity, but I know of others who got tinnitus while on Evinity and others said it mad their tinnitus worse.

Yes I switched to Tymlos and it has been very successful. In 6 months I went from osteoporosis to osteopenia in my spine. It worked because I could step up the dose gradually so I could tolerate the side effects of nausea and other misery. Side effects lasted a few days after increasing the dose but went away quickly and this allowed me to get up to almost the full dose. Even at 7 out of 8 units I still got the results in 6 months.
