Tymlos and exercise
Does Tymlos work even if you can't exercise much? Any type of exercise other than brief walking or lifting seems to cause spasms and dystonia (Parkinson's symptom). I saw a study on Forteo that said it worked anyway. thanks

I cannot think of any reason Tymlos would not work if you cannot exercise. It works by temporarily boosting parathyroid action, which is not dependent on physical activity. Certainly ask your doctor so you feel reassured.
Of course exercise is good for general health. I have trouble with some forms of exercise and walk as much as I can. So if you are walking even briefly that is a positive!
