I had same side effects - high sugar high cholesterol high blood pressure- then osteoporosis and servers pain in my upper legs /lower back to the point that I could not walk one morning. Prolia made the pain worse especially two or three day after injection. I decided to stop every thing and reset. After a year blood pressure and sugar are back to normal still have high cholesterol whereby it came down a lot and only slight pain in my legs in the morning. Negative mammography for the last two times. I think I will just hope that cancer is not coming back. I am 60 and prefer life quality. Not for ever but I am much happier.

Good for you!

I don’t have the guts to quit the Anastrozole yet. I’ve made positive changes in my diet and exercises which has made things better (less swelling, less pain) but if the Prolia makes my situation worse then I’ll seriously consider saying goodbye to Anastrozole and taking my chances.

Thank you for your reply. Be well.
