Yes, I took the shots for 2 years more than ten years ago.  It apparently DID build bone but after a decade+ I am having several of the "possible side effects" that I had to sign off on, and I am wondering if there is anyone else in this community who finished the treatment and has had a long enough time frame SINCE to see any long term side effects.  Doctors know NOTHING about these drugs, so I thought I'd try to get some anecdotal information from others who used FORTEO.  Thank you so much.
