Evenity complications

Posted by tamous1 @tamous1, Jun 9 12:17pm

I’m on my third dose of Evenity. Just checking if anyone else has excessive bloating and brain fog. I’ve also noticed my balance is off a tad and more headaches with my progressive lenses. I’ve been charting this to see if it occurs more just after injections. I know these are minor complications and could be just in my head because of excessive concern.

What does your prescribing physician say about what you are experiencing?

tamous1,
brain fog is a common effect of hypocalcemia. Evenity causes low calcium levels. Brain for was not signaled in the clinical trials. I appreciate your question. As more of us are encouraged to take Evenity we can find out more about how it pans out in real life. I haven't taken Evenity, but may be tempted someday.

I took Evenity for 8 out of 12 months- got a good benefit before stopping due to side effects. Which were brain fog, itchy rash on scalp & neck, and finally a worsening cough and congestion that was constant cough similar to asthma.
Once discontinued everything returned to normal within a few weeks. Endocrinologist concurred with the plan to stop.
* Oh and Calcium and labs were all normal so that wasn’t why.
