Struggling with Tymlos medicine

I have taken Tymlos for a year and still lost density , although specific to my left forearm (rest of measurements same as last scan). Discouraging. I will be seeing a PA soon and let you know what she says. The dr is booked until summer 2024, that is also discouraging. Yet I know Tymlos helps some folks. Every body is different. So it is hard to give the 'right' advise.

@pulane just curious, had you taken another medication before Tymlos that might have affected Tymlos' effectiveness? Did anyone test CTX and P1NP to see if the drug was workin? So sorry! Can you try Evenity

Have you been tested for hyperparathyroidism? https://www.parathyroid.com/hyperparathyroidism-diagnosis.htm
You might ask the PA for serum calcium and ionized calcium. You could order the tests yourself through PrivateMd, but then your insurance wouldn't cover costs.
