I am desperate... what is your recent experience with prolia

Special - thanks for posting. Als were not recommended for me, since I'm ER/PR negative. But the numbers were interesting. I was post menopausal going into chemo & numbers were OK. In 2014 after chemo did a number on my bones, my average went down to -2.1. While my average is still -2.1 a year later in 2015, the femoral neck is down to -2.6. Doc told me that -2.5 was the crossover from osteopenia to osteoporosis. And also that is the place that most commonly breaks when there is a hip fracture. Yuck.

I don't get my prolia in my arms (one had LE, other at risk). I get it in my belly.

So I had my first Prolia shot in July 2016. I'll have the 2nd one in January 2017. Shot given in my tummy. No side effects. My doc insists on full blood work first & that includes D-3, which the MO follow up doesn't usually include.

Anybody having any problems? Stopped taking it? Seen some beneficial changes? Thanks

just got my 4th shot last week, no side effects. I was super scared, cause i have bad teeth and jaw issues, but so far so good!

Thanks everyone for your updates.

lago - thanks for the review. Maybe it will work the same way for me since it's my hip that needs help. I will get my second shot in January
