Re: Forteo (teriparatide) injections

I don't know about Forteo but I take Evista for the same reason (because I

can't tolerate the other stuff Actenol and Fosomax) and I have had no side

effects to date.

I have been on Enbrel for several years and have had absolutely no

adverse side effects. It is working very well for me. In fact, my

recent C-reactive Protein, which measures inflammation in the body, was

0.0. I urge her to try the Enbrel. If she has bad side effects, she can

always discontinue it.

Thank you so much, Sue, for your response. Sometimes, the right

words at just the right time make all the difference in the world.

Thanks again.
