Glad to hear about your response to Tymlos. I’ve been off Prolia for almost 4 months and now being tested to Osteonecrosis. I’ll find out tomorrow. I had to wait to start Tymlos not to have a rebound. My rheumatologist feels Prolia should be mostly out of my system. Every day I wake up expecting to feel a fracture somewhere. I’m petrified of the meds and petrified to be on nothing. I seem to get side effects from most meds. I’ve never had any cancer treatments or dental work during Prolia and yet my mouth started to bother me and now I needed surgery for what they suspect is Osteonecrosis. My bone density was not terrible just in the osteoporosis level and I’m so sorry they convinced me to go on Prolia. My friends have been on it for years with no reaction. If I have osteonecrosis I can take 2 years of Tymlos and that’s it. No other meds if I have this condition. I’m 79 and very active though it seems not to help. I’ve bern working out and maybe that’s why I have postponed the inevitable so far. I hear 4 months is a long time to be off Prolia. My last shot was June. I guess I can’t worry about 2 years from now. I very healthy in all other ways. Between a rock and a hard place.
