Timing of Tymlos Injection-AM vs PM

I didn't even know about the blood test until I read it on here. I feel like I can't find a dr that knows what to do. I made a huge mistake by letting my gyn and then np in the pcp office do my care for years. I really didn't know any better. I was not told things or offered many choices and now I have had to pay the price so to speak. I am desperately trying to find someone that I feel comfortable with and also knows the correct method to use for my treatment. It is so emotional because I really don't know where to look.

Boy, can I relate. I went to an endocrinologist, but even he would not have ordered the baseline P1NP and CTX. I requested those after reading Dr. McCormick's book "Great Bones." Very informative book! Then the endocrinologist suddenly retired without warning and my new one is only in clinic once a week. She did order a 24 hour urine calcium test, which shows I have extremely excessive urine calcium. But because the first endocrinologist didn't get a baseline on that test, we don't know if the Tymlos is to blame or something else. It is frustrating. Some endocrinologists treat osteoporosis, others don't. But that may be where to start your search?
