evenity vs prolia+forteo
speak freely. my Mum's been given these choices, i would love it if she could come off prolia, but evenity sounds too high-powered. prolia has 60mg/6months of ingredient, and evenity has 210mg/1month of whatever it is, is that right? i don't even know if i want to know. had a T11 compression, had

worst fears seem to be coming true.
Dear friends, I posted on here in March 2021 asking your advice as to whether I should even start on Teriparatide worrying about rebound fractures afterwards because I was told there was no other drug that I could safely take. The 2 years on Teriparatide ( Forsteo) passed far too quickly but interrupted

Forteo

Forteo
with no additional meds I do not want to take any more medication but I am told I will lose any gains if I don’t

Had the ablation.
Monday I had the procedure under general anesthesia-safely and successfully. The did give IV cortef at the start of the procedure. Since they needed to intubate my throat is sore for days but my ears-especially the right one are achy. I was debating why aching now; pollen count is moderate,and my jaw

Carbomer eye gel
Good morning. I was at the ophthalmologist yesterday getting umpteen scans and things due to taking hydroxychloroquine. I have very dry eyes once the UV starts to increase (usually February so bang on time). The ophthalmologist gave me carbomer eye gel to use before I go to bed and told me to continue

Severe Osteoporosis - Understanding the scan report and treatment
He said my choices were: Prolia once a month for 2 years (he does not recommend this)
Forteo
- daily injection for 2 years or Evenity - once a month for a year He also told me to start taking calcium and Vit D daily. Not very kind to my touchy GI. There was no mention of diet or exercise.

Told that I can’t have Zoledronic Acid.
Dear friends, I am finishing 2 years of Forsteo at the end of July. In preparation for the possibility of having ZA Infusion as follow on treatment, I have been attending dental appointments . Having been passed to the practise surgeon to have an extraction, we were both shocked to discover I may

Forsteo ending, Zoledronic acid is next.
Dear friends, Once again I’m going to ask some questions on behalf of my dear wife. If you can share your experiences or give advice, we would be most grateful. Our first question is, if you have completed a course of Teriparatide injections, how long did you wait before your next course of treatment

P1NP Blood test.
Dear friends, Saw my Rheumatologist last Monday to discuss treatment when I end Forsteo. After 15 spontaneous fractures since 2018, he’s decided to do a P1NP blood test. Naturally, I’ve read about it, but my question is, have any of you benefitted or had a change in treatment as a result of what the

Still can’t lose weight - on NDT for 3 months
My mother is severely hypo and was untreated while she was pregnant with me. I’ve been hypo literally my whole life, though I was misdiagnosed earlier in life until I figured it out myself 1yr ago after a couple miscarriages and 18 months of creeping weight gain. I take 120mg or 2 grains of Thyroid-S

Looking for guidance
One endo recommended prolia, the other one wants me on either
forteo
or tymlos or evenity. I have not researched any of these meds, but evenity has a box warning that it can increase risk of death from cardiovascular problems.

Hylo Forte or Carbomer Gel?
I have been using hypromellose eye drops for a while because, particularly from Spring to autumn, I have itchy, gritty, dry eyes. This year they're worse than ever making my vision very blurred and no amount of hypromellose will fix it. Last week I went to get my eyes tested, thinking the blurred vision

prednisone, methotrexate, forteo
I finally decided to face my fear and go on the bone med
Forteo
. I have a total of 8 fractures. I was very surprised as my dexa scan had improved considerably. The last fractures were so bad I didn’t want to move because it was So painful. Not moving got me into all sorts of trouble.

Evenity versus Forteo/Tymlos
It is a relatively new drug so I am not as comfortable with it as compared to
Forteo
or Tymlos. For those who have tried
Forteo
or Tymlos, did they help with the bone density in your hips as well as the spine? Thank you!

Update re Forsteo funding stopped.
Dear Friends, At last after a very worrying couple of weeks, Margaret has the result that sadly we’ve had to fight for. We have had wonderful assistance from the nurses on The ROS helpline, throughout and today was no different. What was also no different today, was the conflicting information we were

A cross in the sand
Does anyone else find this explanation helpful -- ? Imagine yourself sitting on the beach and you draw a cross in the sand like an 'x'. The first stroke represents your dopamine deficiency and the second stroke you draw several times as it represents an overactive adrenal response subsequent to the HABIT
