My MD is recommending starting forteo. I have a spine t score of -3. I have not had any fractures, but would like to prevent them. I was curious what sort of result to expect if I start forteo now.
I am 55, post-menopausal, exercise regularly, take synthroid, but have no other health issues.





Forteo did nothing for me. My dr. recommended it to me when I had -3.04 T score for my spine. After injecting for 18 months, my bone density last week showed a new T score of -3.0. Needless to say the results were certainly discouraging.
I am wondering if I am an exception or if this drug does anyone any good?
