How long does it take for Tymlos side effects to subside?

@lnl I have done more than 18 months! 20% gain in spine, from severe osteoporosis at -3.7 to borderline at -2.5 and so much stronger. Hip went from -3.3 to -2.9 but femur neck -4.1 to -3.6 so still a concern.

About food with Tymlos. I hydrate and eat something like crackers. Not a lot. In the beginning because my blood pressure is often low I would aim for something salty and drank a big glass of water, and then used my bp cuff. I relaxed with this over time!

If anyone is light headed or dizzy, it might be good to get a blood pressure cuff and maybe an oximeter that shows O2 and pulse. It is at least reassuring.

I lay down and put my feet up for months but I am still doing better getting up and moving!

Do you do the water and snack before the shot ?

yes....and try something salty....is your bp lowish?

Yes my blood pressure is on the low side

I am Donna
I don’t have b p cuff

Don't push to 5 if you don't feel ready.

The reason I switched to morning (when I restarted, so aside from heart issues) is that I woke up with headache and nausea. Side effects for me were better in the morning. I wonder if being more active moves it through the system or something???!!!! At any rate, regardless of timing, I feel better if I get up and go out even with dizziness or weakness or whatever, than I do staying in bed. But everyone is different. Also your body will adjust....so maybe give it a few days at 4 clicks. I believe even that half dose helps- my doc preferred 6 but told me half is better than none.

I wonder if the coffee in the morning helps clear the head / headache - I bet it does . Do you drink coffee on the morning ? I bc am thinking I should switch to morning my headache is bad at night
P s I did 4 clicks again
