After 2 years, my pain level following 8 vertebral fractures has reduced. It seemed to happen when i started lying on my sides for short periods. Prior to this i could only lie on my back with a heat pad. Im hoping its not a blip! Im taking it as as a sign of improvement, even after 2 years. Im 4 months on teriparatide as well. Maybe thats a factor too. No idea, but its a glimmer of hope after such a long time. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
Hi. That’s really godd news. If it’s working I’m sure your back would soon let you know. I had similar around 7 months into Romosozumab treatment. Prior to this I was the same I could only sleep on back and couldn’t put any pressure on side/hip area. In fact I wedged myself in bed with pillows either side of me so that I would not move once asleep. Then suddenly my back started to feel different and I realised I had got more flexibility in my back and could tolerate lying on my side. Some people in the community have said in their posts that they have found Teriparatide to be healing so wonder if this is what is happening with you. Really hoping this lasts for you
