Sudden diagnosis of CKD3 a few months following adrenalectomy
My wife was borderline cushing's disease back in fall. For years she had a nodule on her adrenal gland that was creating significant health issues. Had surgery to remove the one gland back in November, and then was on a course of hydrocortisone for about 4 months (gradually decreasing dosage until done

Osteoporosis meds
Hi everyone, I have severe osteoporosis, and was told that I need to start daily Forteo injections for 2 years to build up my bone. Has anyone here experienced adverse effects on RLS due to osteoporosis meds? Thanks for any information you may care to share!

Reclast after Evenity
I just completed my 1 yr of Evenity and got good results on my DEXA. My Endocrinologist recommended Reclast IV. I’ve hesitated to take Bisphosphonates because of the side effects. Has anyone used Reclast after Evenity or Forteo ( in used 2016-2018). I also used Prolia from 2019 - 2023. I’m in the USA

Evenity side effects
I would like to hear from people that have been on this drug. Do you have to take it at the exact same time every month? What happens if you’re traveling. Also, what are the side effects? One thing I read that made me very nervous. Was the black box. Warning of heart, attack or stroke. And the side

it shouldn't cause tooth problems, as far as i can tell, but - i'm wondering. on another topic, isn't it the state of things when we ask each other specialist questions due to being unable to get the info from doctors. barely able to ask, as i don't know the questions at the time. there's professional

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

Forteo input (good or bad)
Has anyone had good (or bad) luck with Forteo daily shots? I am still having fractures while on Prolia shots, so they want me to "upgrade" to Evenity or Forteo. I have a fair amount of input on Evenity, but none on Foreo. Any input would be appreciated.

cost of Forteo, Tymlos, Evenity, Prolia in USA
after being on HRT for a year my numbers have worsened and I now have osteoporosis in spine and both hips in the -3 range. In addition I need a biopsy for breast lump. Ugh. So I’m faced with choosing a new osteoporosis drug. Besides the side effects they all seem to have, I’m considering the cost as
