Compression fracture in my back

Hi there,

I have 2 doses of Evenity left and in the case of my original fracture , it remained unchanged but a recent scan has detected more fracture in my T8 while T7 and T11 remain unchanged.
My Dr wants me to go on Prolia but I am have having second thoughts about going this route.
I am a 57 year old male and I have found this forum very helpful.
Thank you for your time.
Alvin

I had Xgeva first, then Prolia and now am about 6 months into my Evenity. I have 12 fractured vertebrae in my spine, broken ribs, broken toe/ foot section. I would caution one thing for sure with any of these drug choices. If you have any dental work done, you need to time it so it isn't done 3 months before or 3 months after getting your shot. You will be at risk of having necrotic jaw disease. If you end up with that, you could easily die or at the very least end up having your entire jaw removed.
