Hi! I get it 100%. Took a while but after further scans I finally decided to go ahead with Evenity just this past spring. However, my insurance denied it and recommended that I try Tymlos first. Thinking they were just making me go with the cheaper drug to save them money I was very upset. So, I did my research. Turned out that Tymlos had reported better outcomes and no longer had a black box warning. So, my insurance company was actually looking out for me.
Although the black box warning was bone cancer it had not been discovered in people, so it was downgraded. Unfortunately, it's given daily by injection at home for 18 months. Super easy to administer with a pen injection. The Tymlos nurse walked me though the first time and taught me some tips and tricks. I've had a little bit of nausea, but it goes away or is prevented with some food in my stomach. Since it's given daily any side effects only last for a couple hours. If you can't tolerate it you can stop and it's out of your system pretty quickly. My copay is completely covered by the manufacturer discount card. Sorry I can't tell you about my experience with Evenity. All I can say is do what's right for you. Don't hesitate to get a second opinion. I went to multiple doctors with the hopes of someone telling me I'll be fine without treatment. But unfortunately, after meeting with all of them and the testing showed it was needed. Good luck and best wishes!
