Just sharing my experience with RECLAST infusion. I had my DEXA Scan in Nov 2023 and since the result showed drastic thinning of bone density, I was advised to have the infusion. I took it the following month Dec. two weeks I had it done (first time), after less than 2 weeks my supposedly mild osteoarthritis on the left knee swelled and I could not even walk and it hurts when I put my weight on it. Although the swelling is gone (but still have a mild inflammation) now to date (Sep 2024) 9 months, I am still experiencing the pain/achiness and the inflammation has not really gone away. I am 65 years old and never had any problems with my arthritis. I Have always been active and always on the go until I had Reclast. I hear you ladies— and also feel your concern regarding the meds and treatment.

I went on Prolia 4 years ago. I, too, had mild osteoarthritis in my knees, but it was about 6 months later that I had serious, almost crippling issues with them. What worked for me was taking collagen supplements. I started with gummies, went to powder and am currently taking capsules. They all were miraculous for me; I chose the capsules simply for convenience. A few months ago I started having some serious jaw pain, and worried it was the Prolia causing damage. X-rays showed everything was fine, and my dentist said the jaw has a muscle which can decline with age. It took another month for me to remember that I had recently cut my collagen dose in half. After increasing it back to what I had previously taken, the jaw pain disappeared. I turn 70 next week.
