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.
My fiance and I are disagreeing on how many pack n plays to have. We had once given to us, but I want to buy a new one. I want to keep the new one here and use the one given to us for when we travel. What is every one else opinion on this?
s something I have slowly been picking away at, as I remember something I pack it. Plus a lot of things I need to pack for myself are things I use on a regular basis still. So I would slowly work on it, then when the day comes, you're either fully packed, or just need to throw in a few items and be on your way!
I did a lot of international travel during tx and had no problems. For a long flight I would pack it with one of the frozen thingies that came with every shipment. At security I would tell TSA that I was carrying injectable meds and syringes with a cold pack. They were real good about it. I always carried copies of my prescriptions but nobody ever asked for one.
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!

Does anyone have any experience in this sector or for that matter any international sector? Airline advises me to carry the pegasys in thermocol packs with ice pack and in checked in baggage. All your views would be appreciated.
I have both a regular wood crib and travel crib which is the playpen/crib. I was gonna put the wooden one in her nursery and the travel one in my room since I'm gonna be breastfeeding. But I don't know how safe the travel crib is for her to sleep during the night.
With my 3 yearold son we ended up not using the crib and doing the co sleeping, but since then the hubby has become a really hard sleeper. So I'm afraid that he would roll on her in the middle of the night.
I bought a diabetic travel pack which is nylon zippered ice pack about the size of a book. It would hold an injection needle, INF, RBV supply and for my 2nd tx VX950 (which also requires refrigeration) along with my script for all. At the airport I'd quietly ask a TSA person to side and explain I was taking a form of Chemo....no further questions. They were very gracious about the whole thing.
I'd wait to see how you are feeling after your first couple of shots.
So obviously thanksgiving is next week & ill be 34 weeks, I live in indiana & my family is having our thanksgiving in ohio because my aunt just had surgery & cant travel.. but anyway everyone keeps saying I shouldn't travel that far ( only 3 1/2 hrs from me ) being 34 Weeks 4 days...

Im currently 30 weeks 5days. What did you ladies pack for your hospital bag , when should I pack my bag ?
On my first baby (and the plan for this one) I uses pampers swadlers. I used a bassinet fir the first 2 weeks in my room, then put her in he crib. I had a hard time sleeping with her in my room, because she was sick a noisy sleeper. I have a pack n play for travel. You don't really need a bassinet if you have a pack n play though. I have a Chicco stroller and carseat carrier for about the first year.
I am 32 tomorrow. What I have in mine; a case with travel sized shampoo, conditioner, and soap. Travel sized deaoderant for me and my husband, toothbrushes for each and tooth paste (travel sized as well) two razors one for each of us (he has to shave daily cus of being military), and some lip balm. I packed a ziplock baggie of my own pads for when I bleed. A blanket for my husband, will add his pillow when the time is right.
You pack knickers, dressing gown, nighties or pjs, tops, pants, socks, bras, travel shampoo, conditioner, body wash/ soap, shaver, credit card or money, camera, phone, charger, slippers, hair dryer, hair ties, make up if needed, tissues, note pad, pen. I can't think of anything else off the top of my head lol.
