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.
May be it is due to antibodies or any hormonal changes, me not confirmed about that. Should I travel to U.K or Canada , what are the international standards for syphilis?
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!

Some sites have a list of essentials.

d already check through urine pregnancy test kit but the result came out negative. if im really pregnant, i already in 2nd trimester n my baby already 13weeks. but since i still confuse wether im pregnant or not i still do sports n go for travel. i dont know.
could you please advise me as to what this means? I will be meeting my doctor in a few weeks time due to travel.. but would like to know what i can do in the mean time. ps: i am really desperate to lose weight and inches!
It is very difficult to make any plans for this weekend or a vacation on these meds but if its important it is usually doable. My NP just tells me to buy travel Ins. in case you need to cancel. My tip is to watch out for the sun and as YuK said you need to keep the needle at the correct temp.
My diaper bag has bottles, diapers, outfits, wipes, small med kit, changing pad, diaper rash cream, blanket, formula divider and pacifiers
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.
Okay thank you guys:)
This is my fourth baby so in my bag i have several sets of pajamas socks underwear travel toiletrie kit (shampoo conditioner body wash tooth paste) travel kit for hubby underwear lounge pants t-shirts for him. Oh and pads! I hate the hospital pads lol.
I was just going to wear jammies home but someone else mentioned a comfy sun dress and that sounds really nice so I may pack one of those too lol.
I forgot to include: socks, your nursing bra and nursing pads.
