A confusion smoothie - perfect! I am not aware of McCormick's advice to take Prolia for one year. Lord knows I searched for that info for days upon days. The rebound is the unknown for sure and it's why I'm hesitant to use it. Are you aware of what he suggests to follow up the Prolia with? I'm curious about that. Your Endo sounds great! My old Endo said the same thing about bone markers and would not use them.

Reclast is preferable after that one year of Prolia, according to McCormick. I have no idea whether this idea has been tested or even used a lot. It may be speculative. If I talk to McCormick I will ask him or maybe someone else can.
My doctors would always want Reclast after Prolia. MCCormick's book "Great Bones" go into a lot of detail about how to safely transition from Prolia to Reclast, using bone markers.
Life with osteoporosis is serious enough so I appreciate an MD with a sense of humor!
My doc says an entire conference could be held to discuss pros and cons of bone markers!
