I had a 20% gain in my spine, going from -3.3 to -2.5, which is now borderline. I had a9% increase in hip which is more than expected.
I am sensitive to meds so started Tymlos at a low dose and ramped up so my body could get used to it. The pen has "clicks" that adjust the dose. I did 6-7 clicks most of the time and the full dose is 8. I still did very well.
The company, Radius, has a patient assistance program. There is a fairly generous income requirement. You can call Together with Tymlos for advice.
