One of the problems with online groups regarding medical or RX is that most people who post have had problems with the drugs or procedures. The people with great results rarely post. Also, the reader knows nothing about the person's lifestyle or medical history. One person may report horrible side effects from using Prolia but there may be 100 success stories to each nightmare story. One thing is for sure is that there are risks and possible side effects from most procedures and prescriptions. The best we can do is to gather the facts ( evidence based, of course) talk with our doctor, get a second opinion if still on the fence, and then weigh the benefits versers the risks. It really bothers me when I hear people say things like "I've read about that poison and I'll never take that or any other OP drugs" because they are probably going to do themselves a world of harm they might not be able to fix later on. That's just my 2 cents.
