I started on a Evenity I am having extreme fatigue,.

I have had 4 Evenity treatments with minimal side effects ; some overall aches on the 7th day after injection but it went away in 24 hours. I do get more fatigued then usual at night ( 9pm) but I know my body is working hard to build bone. Medications effect us all differently - but they do effect us. I had a dickens of a time on Tymlos - weakness, stomach pain, inability to eat, heart palpatations- and I worked with an alternative doctor to solve these issues. Allpoathic docs dont have the insight or skill in this area and they need learn to be more supportive. As to your fatique, I would work with an alternative doc/ ayurvedic if possible. Maybe you need to reduce dose? Thats just a thought. I had to reduce tymlos it 1/8 dose and gradually move up. ALso, diet is crucial - do everythign you can to eat a supportive diet - include collagen ( fortibone) Sending postive energy and healing light.

I’m finding that I am experiencing fatigue. Get the fourth dose of evenity this week. Also have joint pain. The worst is when it wakes me I’m in the middle of the night! I don’t get another scan until after 6 doeses. Hoping these effects mean my body is responding in a positive way!

On my 4th tymlos pen. I've had no adverse reactions at all. Ive always been hot at night post menopausal, an am always tired anyway. I'm almost 70, just assumed it's from getting old.

Not sure if the original poster is still here but since this thread has been bumped, I will chime in.

I’ve had three shots; fourth is scheduled for next week. I find myself sleepy earlier in the day and have no problem falling asleep. During the day I am usually ok, but some days lack energy. This isn’t that unusual for me since I started on a series of anabolic medications just over a year ago (Tymlos, then generic Forteo, and now Evenity). These are powerful medications that boost your bone metabolism so I am not surprised.

What is new for me on Evenity is joint and muscle pain that wakes me up during the night. It started in month two and has worsened this month. I take two extended release Tylenol at bedtime which work for a few hours. I also experience some tingling in my feet and hands. I have no new fractures to my knowledge.

Aleve also works but I can’t take it often as it upsets my stomach.

I am ok during the day when I’m moving around but once I lie down it starts after a few hours.

It’s worse if I don’t exercise. For now, I am sticking with Evenity but will continue to search for any way to minimize this side effect. Minimal sugar, moving during the day, hydrating well, and Tylenol at bedtime. My fracture was worse.

The joint pain also makes me up. Worse at night. Maybe bc I’m moving during day.
Hope I can push through…

I was on envenity and unfortunately after 12 months it nothing except decrease my bone density. I had severe reactions and was miserable for the whole time. My side effects were bone pain, joint pain, rapid weight gain, fatigue, depression , I think most ever side effects. I have really no choice to move forward with tylmos - hoping that I will do better with that since that’s my last option to grow bone.your not a lone ranger with side effects.

I too am experiencing fatigue secondary to insomnia. I have always been a good sleeper, not since I started Evenity 3 months ago, Three or four hours a night is the average, so yes I'm fatigued. My stomach is also not happy but there is a gut/sleep relationship so I'm not surprised. I'm planning to stop this drug. I'll keep everyone posted.

So thankful I found this thread. Not sure if it’s because my body is trying to rebuild bone or what, but I cannot keep my eyes open after 5 PM and I am the most active person I know. I’ve also noticed an increase in appetite - again, maybe my body needs the energy to produce more bone? Has anybody gotten DEXA results back after a year on Evinity? One another weird experience - I had this tingling sensation all over my face (like a niacin flush if you’ve ever done that). Anyone else experience any of these things?

vapelli, the tingling and fatigue sound like hypocalcemia. You might ask your prescribing doctor to order calcium levels. They should be able to do this by phone. Bone markers can be helpful so that you don't take a year of Evenity without increasing bone density. Most people do have very good bone acquisition on Evenity.
