Younger than usual with severe osteoporosis

I thought my t score was bad in my spine of -4.6 I went on Evenity for one year and my T score is now -3.3. My endocrinologist then put me on Prolia. I was so against going on it from all that I read but it helps to build more bone density . I have had 2 injections so far and will do another DEXA in August. Will then decide on going on Reclast to hold the gains.

Thank you for sharing! I will be taking Prolia soon, after one year of Evenity treatment last month. My dr said do 2-3 Prolia and then do Evenity again to build more bones. Then maybe Reclast 3-4 years and take a drug holiday if all goes well. I agreed with Prolia despite all the scary story about rebound fractures.

Sorry I forgot to ask if we need to prepare for the Prolia injection, like hydration, rest, Tylenol, etc. before/after the shot to avoid potential side effects.

Thanks!
