No improvement in Dexascan after 11 months on Evenity

I had to have a blood test before each Evenity shot. I have completed 12 shots but can't get a dexa scan until April 2024 per my physician unless I want to pay for the expensive scan.

I recently had a DEXA scan after only 5 injections. My MD put " Medically Necessary" for it to be covered. If not the Women's Center that I go to ( which is connected to a hospital) said it would have charged me $125 plus the Radiologist fee for reading it. Just a thought. Are you taking any medication at the moment? If you did get any gains from taking Evenity you will need to " lock in" the gains with another medication soon after ending Evenity.
