@janflute if you don't have a health condition that concerns your doc about Reclast, they will probably suggest kidney testing, then hydration day before, day of and day after, and a slow infusion. You can also medicate beforehand. Many women I know have absolutely no side effects, but many who do have side effects post here. My test dose is because I have afib, kidney disease and med reactions and my doc wants the test dose for those reasons. Not sure your doc will prescribe a test dose without a reason-? My nephrologist is very concerned for my kidneys with Reclast and communicated that to my endo.

I would think that switching to Evenity might be a good possibility if the Forteo is truly not working or even making things worse. Is it possible the technician made an error?!

Thank you so much for this information. What a treasure you are for taking the time to share all your valuable knowledge! I think that the Forteo is working well, but I will not know until April when I have a bone density test. I see Dr. Mannstatd in May.
