@fdixon63 no, I don’t see your reply at my end either. The reason I asked is because Prolia can cause jaw necrosis if you have invasive dental work or surgery while on it, and it is recommended you wait several months after having quit Prolia before getting any dental work.

I quit taking Prolia after my first injection because I heard and read so many stories about its negative impact on your bones … people developing spinal fractures, jaw necrosis (which alarmed me the most because of my Oral Lichen Planus), etc. my last bone scan a year ago only showed the same level of cervical stenosis which I have lived with for several years anyway. Haven’t had any broken bones and I am now 78. 🤞🏼

Jaw necrosis is the same reason I won't do ketamine for CRPS.

Of all the things that can go wrong in your body, losing your bottom jaw and ending up with a G tube and breathing out of your neck I can't think of much worse.

I'm good with skipping these new meds with such dangerous side effects. It's bad enough when it's written in tiny print red really quickly on a TV ad, but when it's also in big bold print, I pay attention.

Thanks for that info. I had never heard of that drug and esp its side effects. Jaw necrosis is always more likely with poor dentition.
