Anyone taken Evenity (romosozumab) for Osteoporosis?

I recently had my 4th injections of Evenity. I don’t seem to have much trouble with the injection site pain. The only side effect that I might be having is fatigue the day after.
I have read posts on this site where people have said that they were okay until their 5th or 6th injections and then they started having terrible reactions.
I am hoping that doesn’t happen to me. I will hang in there until injection 12 as long as I can manage symptoms. People are getting great results with Evenity.

Just letting you know. my endocrinologist took me off after 6 . He said Studies show you get the most benefit from the 1 st 6 months . I was having anabolic reactions . They started the 4 th injection . The 5 th and 6 th got worse . He put me on Prolia now . I have had one injection. I didn’t have any side affects . For me Prolia was the only one I could go on. He said my bones are not good. No sugar coating

The way my doctor explained it to me is that when you get your first injection, your body doesn’t know what it is or how to reaction to the medication. After two or three shots, the body is starting to recognize it as an enemy and starts to react to it - and that is when side effects worsen. Hope I’m explaining it correctly - it made sense to me when the doctor explained it to me. Basically, the body recognizes it as a foreign substance and doesn’t figure out how to respond to it until after a few shots.
