Do you have calcium lumps with Forteo?
I’ve been on Forteo since December 2023.
Tonight I have pain in my right fourth toe. There’s a hard lump just below the nail bed.
My toe is throbbing.
Have you experienced lumps of calcium when taking Forteo?

The lump was not under the nail. It was at the base of the nailbed.
I use Tirosint. It's pure of allergens but requires a note of necessity from your doctor. You can get it for $25 a month with a manufacturers coupon (unless you are on Medicare). Several of my doctors, both allopathic and naturopath, did not recommend the dessicated thyroid hormones like nature-throid because they contain additional hormones that are not found in the human body. There have also been recalls on these products as they were sometimes found to have sub-par levels of hormones. I was on them initially and found that I needed higher and higher doses. When my doctors suggested I go off them, I thought it was a good idea and switched to Tirosint and have been on that for many years with no issues.
