I have been on Forteo daily injections for 1 year and I have experienced considerable joint pains which did not exist prior to treatment. My left hip and knee, my right knee and my hands have been getting worse each month. Has anyone else experienced similar reactions?
My doctor told me that I have Osteoporosis and wants me to try Forteo an injection for two years. Has anyone tried this drug and what were your side effects, if any. I don't want to make my stomach problems worse than there already are.
I have severe osteoporosis and am trying to take Forteo. I started out with half dose and have worked up to a full dose. The full dose 2 days in a row was disabling. My doctor suggested every other day. So I let the previous trial work its way out of my system for 5 days and tried another full dose. This is three days after the dose and I am weaker each day. I move in slow motion. My doctor is puzzled. Anyone had a similar experience?
Just was informed that I have osteoporosis. My doctor wants me to use Forteo, an injection that you use for two years.
As for myself, I am a patient suffering from severe osteoporosis. My doctor, realizing I cannot afford Forteo ($950 per month!), has suggested I try to find how I can take the equivalent, generic version, which is Bonista.
Please, if anyone can tell me how to get ahold of this medication, any address, emails of sellers, etc! I would be so grateful!

Dear sir please solve my problem. In my right ovary a cystic sol size 5.86cmx5.81cm. These may be cured by medicine . Or the operation may have to . It would not have nothing to fear . Please help me sir.
1- few small hypersignal T2W and FLAIR foci are seen in right hemisphere periventricular white matter. No SOL, mid line shift or hydrocephaly detected.
2- mucosal thickening is noted in ethmoidial air cells and sphenoid sinus.
other items were normal.
would you help me to know what is my disease? and what is small foci in periventricular white matter?
I have a bad habit of smelling pine Sol all day clean wash clothes with it will it harm my baby ? ? ? What cravings or bad habits do you have ?
This is really weird but I LOVE the smell of pine sol.. I have to smell it all the time, It gets to the point I want to drink it..(I'm not going to tho,the craving to smell it is just that bad).. so when I smell it, i get an instant craving for ice. Has this happened with anyone else?
Hi-- When you say Medicare, I assume it is Medicare Part D, administered by an insurance company like Blue Cross, etc? If so, you might be in for sticker shock. I had a similar experience w/ Forteo, via Part D, they wanted $5K for 3 months. I went directly to Lilly, and qualified for pro bono meds for 2 years, the limit of tx on Forteo. My understanding is patients with cirrhosis get priority. Other Gilead experienced persons, and there are a few here, can tell you more.
So this might be really weird to ask but do any of you crave the smell of anything??..lately I've been wanting the need to smell pine sol...even when I'm not cleaning I just wanna go open the bottle n start cleaning with it....
Hi I'm 25 weeks pregnant with my 3rd baby and i have been having really weird cravings. All I want is a huge cup of ice or non food stuff like i want to drink or sniff lemon scent pine-sol or nail polish. I'm I crazy?! Or is this normal? I have appt with my OB Friday I'm going to tell her about it but just curious to see if I'm alone on this or not. I do don't drink the pine-sol or nail polish btw.
Hello,
I'm 8 weeks pregnant and I was wondering what cleaning products are safe to use? I'm more of a traditional cleaner I use mostly bleach, comet, pine sol, and windex. Should I still use these products or should I switch to something else? Do other products clean as well?
I, too, am Gt3, on Sol/ Riba a just completed my 9th week of 24 week course - 400 mg Sol, which I take @ 8 am each day and 3200 mg eiba morning @ same time as Sol, and 3 200 mg Riba @ 8:00 pm. There are many of us around so you will probably get several different 'takes' on sides.
To answer, usual side effects the doctor will probably tell you to expect are fatigue, possibly headaches sometimes, and maybe anemia.
Medications themselves can be classified as antiresorptive or bone anabolic agents. Teriparatide (Forteo) is also approved for the treatment of postmenopausal women who have severe osteoporosis and are considered at high risk for fractures. The medicine is given through daily shots underneath the skin and you can give these shots even at home. Another advantage is that it can be given in patients who cannot tolerate oral biphosphonate drugs.
