Can you take tymlos and prolia

Thanks for sharing the video. I literally had to watch it in parts because i got so upset. If this is correct, I am really a lost cause. I am 56. I have been on prolia at least 4 years. I still have 3 months before another prolia injection and now the new supposedly "osteo" dr has put me on tymlos, which is reversed sequence. In 3 months she does not want to renew the prolia. Her plan is for me to stay on tymlos 18 mo then back to the prolia. I am so worried. I feel like I am doomed. I really don't know what direction to go. Prior to 3 months ago, I was extremely athletic, hiking, running, walking, and biking around 200 miles a week. Now I can only do short walks or hikes and strength training exercises.

There are still plenty of things that can be done. I didn't mean to scare you.
Learn as much as you can, try to get those tests, and have good discussion with your doctor, or try to find a different doctor. I'm nearly 54. My doctor gave me a Prolia injection last year. I found this group, did a lot of research, decided not to get another Prolia injection, and found a new doctor who is running a ton of tests before I embark on any further treatment.
Sometimes the path is not as clearly defined as we would like it to be. In my case, after 3 fractures on Prolia, my options were very limited hence the transition to Tymlos. It was necessary to strive for for fracture prevention. My rheumatologist recommended resuming Prolia after the Tymlos. I’m consulting with an endocrinologist next month to assess her recommendations and possibly switch doctors to manage my op.
Find a good endocrinologist who specializes in bones. You should not have to deal with all the misinformation

It would be great if you could get some tests done to see what's happening with your bone turnover to truly know what's happening.
