I've been diagnosed with osteoporosis. Took Boniva for two years, but it did not help me at all. Now the doc wants me to try a daily injection of Forteo. It has been used by some for about 5 years.
I feel like a guinea pig, and haven't made the decision to use it. I FEEL REALLY good now, and do not want side effects to ruin my quality of life. However, the possibility of a broken bone would also change the quality of life. I am VERY active, and do so many things that some would say are risky;ie, ladders, riding mower,running up and down stairs.
Just wondering if anyone has taken this, and what side effects have you experienced.
