My Experience on Evenity for Treating Osteoporosis

Hi, It is frustrating. I’ve posted before about stopping Evenity myself after 11 mos, should have stopped sooner, as I could not move without pain and am very active -hike, ski, mountain bike. I felt like I gave myself significant arthritis. Pad for a scan and had amazing results. BUT, with that said listen to your own body along with medical advice because you alone know how you feel and what is normal for you. I’m pretty sure my medical professional thinks I have an anxiety issue about Evenity but it made me feel like I was 90 and I’m 67. I’m on Fosomax now and reading Great Bones for a more educated approach myself. Hope you feel better but I remind myself that medicine is a science ever evolving and doesn’t have all the absolutes!

I am wondering if I should bother having a DEXA scan after only 5 doses. The Endocrinologist I went to for a second opinion said she has no idea, and she didn't bother to offer to call other specialist that might know or help. The Rheumatologist wants to put me on Fosamax. At this moment I feel like my bottle needs to recover from the Evenity side effects. I am also halfway done reading " Great Bones" and have learned so much. I wish he had written it years ago when I was first diagnosed. This site has helped me so much with support and venting and of course Education. I only wish I could go to the MAYO clinic to get their opinion of how to proceed with my issues.
