Is necrosis a side effect of Evenity? I thought that it was not. Am I misinformed?
So sorry that this happened to you. 🙁

@susanfalcon52 Evenity is both an anabolic bone builder and an anti-resorptive. My doc and Keith McCormick's book both told me that it is more anabolic in the first 6 months and then the anti-resorptive qualities are stronger in the last 6 months.
It comes with the same warning on osteonecrosis of the jaw and atypical femur fracture as Prolia and bisphosphonates but the risk is, I have been told, less with Evenity than the others. (My info is from the Evenity site as well as docs...)
