Mon 18 Aug, 2008 02:47 pm - Is anyone noticing edema (water retention) in the hands, feet, abdomen and maybe even the mouth after taking Forteo for awhile? I'm carrying perhaps 4 or 5 pounds of water around these days;... (view)
Mon 11 Aug, 2008 08:33 pm - I learned that the cholesterol lowering drug that I was on can cause memory loss, so maybe that's what was causing it for me. I am now off that drug and on a new one that does not have this... (view)

I have been on Forteo for nine months. Had a bone density test last week only to find out that I am still losing bone mass. Very disappointing. My endocrinologist says that... (view)
Sat 21 Jun, 2008 05:00 pm - Thyroid test came out very normal, so my cold chills and other symptoms are probably just me getting older (I'm 60). I finally figured out a way to remember which thigh to inject on alternate... (view)

Tue 25 Mar, 2008 10:32 am - It seems sort of odd that Forteo would cause a broken rib just three weeks after tarting the injections. Sounds like something else was going on before Forteo, perhaps the broken rib is just the... (view)
Sun 16 Mar, 2008 06:39 pm - I hadn't thought of that. Might be a good idea to try it. I was told to give my injection at the same time each day, but no specific time was specified. I think I will try it in the morning... (view)
Sun 16 Mar, 2008 03:24 pm - insomnia?
Post menopausal women have trouble sleeping some nights anyway, so it's hard to say whether Forteo is the problem! Some nights I sleep like a log other nights, I'm awake until... (view)
