What kind of plans are possible if you are looking ahead for many year
Osteoporosis & Bone Health | Last Active: Aug 3, 2023 | Replies (25)Comment receiving replies
Well said. I am struggling with this very issue. I am 64. If I start with Evenity for a year and successfully build back my bone, can I conceivably treat myself holistically, my preferred next step? No one really talks about this approach to sequencing. All I have been reading is sequencing with more meds. I am willing to try Evenity if I know there is a non-drug solution at the end.

Do any of you feel, that the right answer to make a decision as to how to treat osteoporosis is so convoluted,it makes your head spin? I just want to wrap my body in shrink wrap, and wait until more studies and research studies are conducted. I will continue to do research, and hopefully insurance companies and big pharma can begin to collaborate research on post menopausal women finally!

Keith McCormick, the chiropractor expert on osteoporosis, wrote The Whole Body Approach to Osteoporosis and more recently Great Bones (lots on meds). He himself did meds and then relied on holistic methods afterwards.
If you try Evenity and then transition to Reclast, then, according to my doc and McCormick, you may be able to take med breaks and in the meantime try natural meds. The situation can be monitored with the CTX and maybe P1NP blood tests.
