    I am very happy and thankful to report after 9 shots each 6 months a part - I have now moved out of osteoporosis to osteopenia!!! I am thankful to report that I have had NO side effects!

    I�m sorry to see so many negative reviews. So far I have no complaints. I had severe osteoporosis after menopause. My doctor first put me on Forteo for two years.

    Wish I had never had this shot. Side effects are terrible. I’ve been sick ever since the first shot. Just like all the other ladies here. Diarrhea, body aches, weakness. It’s been 3 months and I’m getting weaker. Hope I survive this time.
