Hi i am new to this group . i’ve been taking prolia injections twice yearly now for over five years maybe six years or so and I recently three months ago had a pelvic fracture from osteoporosis. I did not fall or bump into anything. I just woke up with a pelvic fracture, has anyone experience this?

Yes! Same for me. Orthopedic said it’s the type of fracture they see in car accidents or in someone who has fallen from a ladder. 6 weeks later after being non weight bearing, I still get twinges of pain.
I take calcium, vitamin D and collagen. Rheumatologist would like me start on Prolia, but the thought of jaw necrosis as a possible side effect scares me.
What have you done?
