Why Is It So Hard To Get The Medication Forteo. I Had To Go To Another Supplier

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Kincardine, ON

I feel like the only person with osteoporosis that takes daily injections. My regular supplier can’t get it till December 21st and I needed for December 8th, had to find another supplier. Also, I take codeine for pain re osteoarthritis and scoliosis. Can’t get it, on backorder. Like what’s going on? Never had trouble before, it’s only since December this is happening. I now go to the cannabis store.

Once your Doctor gets you on the program through the Government you are covered for 2 years free of charge. Thanks heavens as these injections are very costly.

New Orleans, LA

I had hip surgery in July. Because I'm having hip pain I am on anti inflammatory and Tylenol. PT as well. I try to go without the meds as I worry about my body but I'm still working amd after a few days have to take them to remain able to do my work as a secretary. Anyone experience this and what are you doing if anything for a more positive approach? Also I'm so tired at the end of my workday any suggestions for a good vitamin? And shoes what is a good shoe? More than one question sorry
