Are we overdosing Reclast???

I did not want to take prolia. I asked my doctor if I could take bisphosphanates instead. Her response was that this was the protocol. I will see what happens with my next dexa scan, and find another doctor if I feel like I need treatment. I would really like to find a doctor who knows more about osteoporosis treatments than I do, and who is open to discussion

@m40 a lot of doctors prescribe bisphosphonates after Evenity. The Evenity website suggests Prolia. The same company makes both so....

If you go on Prolia it has been suggested by Dr. McCormick, who wrote "Great bones," to only do a year or so and then transition to a bisphosphonate.

Can you get a second opinion? My docs won't use Prolia at all. Is this an endo who is treating you?

rn40, My sentiments exactly..."I would really like to find a doctor who knows more about osteoporosis treatments than I do, and who is open to discussion." Anyone out there know anyone in the Houston area?
