@windyshores - thank you and my (new) doctor's reasoning was that due to the sudden & intense jaw pain that I experienced 1-week after my last Prolia shot back in June 2024, he was reluctant to put me on a Bisphosphonate due to potential risks for further issues (osteonecrosis); as they too can cause it. I did ask him for Reclast (I was on that prior to Prolia), and he said it's the strongest of the Bisphosphonates and said no to it. If my insurance denies Forteo, then he will put me on Fosamax.
