Hi freebird67. I am taking Verzenio with Anastrozole once daily, then Verzenio alone at night. The Anastrozole is an Estrogen blocker so I will be taking a Prolia injection in the next week or so. I fought the Prolia for 2 years but decided I'd take a chance on Prolia, than perhaps end up an invalid with broken hip, etc. that may not heal. My bone density is NOT GOOD. The Anastrozole is necessary to fight the cancer, but horrible for bones. I'm so glad to know that it can cause sore bones. I wasn't told that. I'm doing great on it, thusfar. (Started September 2024). Thank you for the information. Be blessed! Hugs.

Hi anniez1943, it took me a little while to even make myself take the Anastrozole, but finally did after much arguments with my family. The worse time is in the mornings with it,I have learned to take my time but still be active as much as I can.
I too was suppose to start the Prolia, but refused it. I was not ready to start bombing my body with all these meds at once on top of all the other meds I take. I too have osteoporosis , I just needed time. But I am now on Ibandronate that I will take monthly. Im just now starting it, so I'm unsure of side effects yet. Im not familiar with Verzenio, may I ask what that is ?
