In the process of trying to find out the cause of my PN, the rheumatologist found -3.1 DEXA score in my spine (lumbar). He pushed for Prolia, but I just started the fosamax this morning. I read that after stopping Prolia, you lose all the gains soon after, and Fosamax tends to stay in your bones longer? It is also much less expensive. Amgen does have a program to help pay for it though.

@jan64 have you asked about Tymlos, Forteo or Evenity? Your score is low enough that you might qualify if your doctor indicates medical necessity. Maybe you could also ask an endocrinologist.

Fosamax will reduce effectiveness of bone builders over time but you have only taken it once.

My doctor won't use Prolia at all due to rebound.
