Prolia/Forteo combination therapy?

How frustrating to be pulled in multiple directions.
Though I personally am not a fan of Prolia, there is research showing that Prolia either in combination with Forteo, or after Forteo is the most effective treatment. I'm not sure that doing Forteo after having Prolia works. Maybe someone else knows.
Here's the link to a YouTube presentation by Dr. Ben Leder on combination and sequential treatment. You may find it helpful.
Someone else may have already suggested the video in this discussion. Sorry if I'm just repeating it.

Thank you so much @hopefullibrarian ! I really am grateful for your insights and just being supportive and empathetic. I'll watch the video and also see if it's possible to get an appointment with one of the consultants I saw to ask more questions. Fingers crossed.
I imagine it is rarely a straight science and people respond differently. Plus age and cause etc may play a part in their choices? I'm 44yrs, diagnosed at 18yrs. So I've had near 20 fractures and although I'm very restricted in what I can do now, I am so grateful to be receiving treatment and to have not had worse. I am fearful of the future and what may come as things deteriorate more. But I imagine others feels very similarly and I know there are people suffering a lot more than me, which is awful to think about.
Sending support and hope to all x
