Evenity Side Effects: Blurry vision?

I am at 11 months of Evenity. I just had my annual scan and one area was worse, the other slightly better. Apparently there’s some new software that allows the doctors to evaluate whether the ‘structure’ of bone has improved (something Evenity is known for). I’m still waiting to hear about this. In the meantime, I’ll take the 12th injection and then move to Reclast. About pain with the injections - I usually get them in my arms. I don’t much feel the needles but I get some swelling and heat at the injection sites for a few days afterwards. It gradually subsides. It’s not great but not a major problem either.

Just completed my 10th injection, this one in my thighs as arms suffer on-going soreness. A few other sites have some soreness: left toe pads that requires padded shoes and left hip soreness. Reactions are minor enough that I'll finish the last two injections and see how the bone scan goes.

What is the current best measure of bone density.

Finished November 2023 all 12 injection. Minor irritation and tiredness for a day and occasional headache. Honestly no problems at all!! DXA 13.8% gain in BMD in spine (-3.1 to -2.5) and total femur 5.4% increase in BMD (-3.0 to -2.7) and femoral neck increase BMD of 8.1% (-3.3 to -3.0). and no fractures!!

Still working on it and reluctantly taking alendronate weekly by mouth with so far just 2 episodes of GERD resolved
with minor use of antacids. I do feel lucky i’ve tolerated these drugs and know everyone is very different but this has been my experience. Best to you!!

I don't have an answer to your question but I wonder if you would be willing to comment on your choice of follow-up drug. Thanks in advance and good luck to you...I just had my fourth shots of evenity.

I'm thinking of monitoring my bone density first to see if I need a followup which I probably will. My doctor suggests Prolia.

Dec 16 2023. I have stage o osteonecrosis of the jaw( dx by maxillofacial surgeon) after third Evenity injection( my endocrinologist did not examine my mouth before initiating Evenity) ? Now I need dental procedures , 18 days after my last dose, 11/28/23. Apparently extraction often can precipitate severe Osteonecrosis of the jaw. Is this Endocrinologist negligent. Should I be on antibiotics or should I go ahead with the coronectomy ? It will expose almost as much bone as an extraction?????
