UPDATE: You won't believe this!
As promised, here is my news from today's visit to the endocrinologist; who was to give great wisdom on "what do I do now", considering the serious adverse reactions to Prolia, Osnuvo and Residronate.
The last thing you expect is what happened ... apparently, there is no other drug that I can try.
I was about to hit a new level of despair, and then she said.... "but why are you being treated for Osteoporosis in the first place?"
She reviewed my bone density results over the past several years, and concluded [drum roll please... ] "You don't have Osteoporosis... there is no need to treat"... !?"
I am gob-smacked! Delighted but amazed!
She continued to show me my results with a visual aid, explaining that I do not meet the criteria for Osteoporosis!
How did this happen --- no clue.... of all my concerns, this was never thought about.
I will return to my G.P. to see if we can add any sense to this ridiculous situation, because this must NEVER happen again!
My health balance is already precarious, without such a dreadful error in the works!
My respirologist will be extremely angry as I have now lost some function in my lungs due to the resultant increase in infections from the Prolia. [not to mention the dangerous adverse reaction to Osnuvo]
So, I sign off ... a bit weary, perplexed but so very thankful that this long and difficult journey is now at an end.
Again, I thank all of my Connect Buddies for your on-going support and wisdom during this adventure.
May all of our diagnosis be the correct one!
All the best,
christine

Wow, really cannot understand how this can happen as you stated above "I was told by two doctors and McCormick".... These doctors MUST have looked at your numbers, whether they be blood work, Dexa, TBS and advised and/or spoke with you. Did they just advise/consult with you without looking at these? Trying to understand without going back and finding all your posts. I look at this site on and off and today was an on day. Be well, I'd be irate....

Wow! I am really so happy for you! Take care and all the best!

So happy for you, but how in the heck did this even happen?!
