sorry you've had to go through so much here.
I hated making the choice of which drug to choose to take after an ankle fracture, and poor dexa results... but I kicked myself into gear and chose prolia 2 years ago.
just had a bone scan and there is significant improvement....but most importantly There have been zero side effects...
Hang in there and Best of luck

Not everyone is the same. Delighted you have made so much progress with prolia. i frequently have severe reactions to drugs.

@sup7401 Prolia can be really helpful with bone density but there is a risky rebound when stopped. Do you have a long term plan to stay on Prolia or are you transitioning to Reclast, and when? It seems Keith McCormick ("Great Bones") has been saying more recently that Prolia might be safe and beneficial for 1-3 shots with a less severe rebound than longer term use, addressable with bisphosphonates. I have not talked with my own endo on this. So many of us lack long term plans!
