I actually misspoke. My P1NP doubled, so it was a 100% increase. Dr. McCormick's book says P1NP peaks at about 150% by month five or six before it starts to recede. That's different than what the Tymlos site says. Still no CTX result.
Thanks for your response! My CTX score hasn't been reported yet, but I will post when it does. I am also dealing with extreme excess calcium in my 24 hour urine test and have skipped the past two days of shots until I hear from my doctor, so I don't know if I'll even be able to stay on the Tymlos. Regarding P1NP, I just read that it peaks at about 93% above baseline at one month, and then slowly recedes. So my 50% at three months isn't excessive after all. I'm not sure how this correlates with Forteo, but I would think that it's similar. Did you have your P1NP checked before the six month mark as well? From what I read, your P1NP would have been at the highest at the one month mark. Regarding the CTX, the Tymlos literature indicates that CTX would be expected to increase quite a bit at first before decreasing. I did not expect that but am glad I read it before my lab result comes in.
