My Experience on Evenity for Treating Osteoporosis

Did anyone explain why your body began to react negatively? Apparently Evenity stops a bone deterioration process, it doesn't have the bone adding process.
But your scores are improved, that is encouraging. Wishing you all good health. Thank you for sharing.

@lashu that is not correct. Evenity is a potent bone builder especially in the first 6 months, and also had anti-resorptive qualities (stopping breakdown) but more in the last 6 months. This is from my doc and from McCormick's book "Great Bones." I have seen a quote that Evenity "turbocharges" bone growth.

I don't think the dr really believed me that it was related to Evenity but I have NEVER had aches or pains prior to having Evenity and it did get better over the course of several months once I stopped. I was fine the first few months with only injection site tenderness for a couple of days. I have read other posts here that people had joint pain, muscle stiffness so I don't think I am crazy, ha! Arthralgia is listed as a reaction so I'm not sure why they didn't think it was connected to Evenity. Maybe I am the only patient that has experienced it in this practice?
