I am so sorry you were given the wrong information. My Endo guy told me the same thing but through this forum I learned how the Tymlos dosing really works AND YOU CAN ADJUST THE DOSE! I have had no luck with any other meds. I started Tymlos with just1 click and after a few days moved up to two. Side effects were minimal and bearable. Since the beginning of Sept I have moved up to 7 clicks and can tolerate this dosage very well as long as I drink plenty of water throughout the day. Last week I upped it to 8 clicks expecting little or no reaction but WAS I WRONG! 8 clicks is just too much and the side effects, nausea, dizziness, body aches and feeling like I had the flu so didn't even want to getup in the morning, were awful!! So now I am back to7 clicks. One of our our co-commenters, "Windy Shores" has had good luck at 6 clicks and she always gives me great advice on this treatment. I hope she sees this and weighs in.
