@cloud60 everyone is different. You may do just fine with Tymlos and therefore could go up one click a day. Others may benefit from a slower ramp up. I never got to the full 8 clicks (except for a few days) but that should be the goal and most end up doing full dose.

I have also been told that thighs are okay but since studies were done with stomach, many docs, nurses and pharmacists will say tummy only. I stuck to tummy, at least 2" from the navel. I know from my kid's type 1 diabetes/insulin shots that absorption is best in the tummy.

@susanfalcon52 no sure this applied for you.....For those 65 and over, Radius Assist can provide free Tymlos if you meet income guidelines. They have changed how they provide this info. I had a personal rep at Together with Tymlos who guided me and now it seems you go on the Radius website to find the paperwork to apply for aid.

I learned that I didn’t prime the one correctly I tapped on lower part of pen instead of liquid part. Do you think I need to reprime it.
