Forteo or Evenity - which to take?

Good evening @artisan3 ......I couldn't help but pop in with another suggestion. After two years of Tymlos injections, my endocrinologist recommended Alendronate....aka Fosamax. I simply take one pill every Monday morning. Give it 30 minutes before you start moving about and having breakfast.
This all took place after a year of Prolia which had unacceptable side effects and a door that appeared to close forever.
May you be safe, protected, and free from inner and outer harm.

Hi Again Chris, I think that Fosomax would be a problem for me because of a "tortuous esophagus", a hiatl hernia: so doctors worry about the interaction of some of these medications in this regard. I am still weighing the benefits/problems of Evenity and what it will be followed up with. I must decide before October 4.

Thank you! I do appreciate all of you sharing your experiences. I do have Alendronate written down, to discuss with my doctor.
I did have a bad experience with Fosamax and Boniva several years ago, hence my concerns for jumping into this pharmaceutical pond. Guess I will jump off that bridge when I get to it !
