Can one stop taking prolia after the first shot?

Please reconsider. Drugs *may* have side effects. It isn't guaranteed and it isn't even for the majority of people. You know what's a bad side effect? Breaking your hip. For a healthy person, that could mean a hip replacement and months of therapy. For an elderly person, it's a death sentence.
It doesn't sound like you're doing fine, to be honest. It sounds like you're in pain.

Thanks for your comment. All of my pain is from cancer treatment side effects accept the once a month slight hairline fracture in the knee. I can live with that!
The side effects from the Prolia made my life debilitating. It triggered neuropathy with leg cramps and bone pain lasted longer than usual. It twisted the limbs where pain was beyond what I could take and no medicines that didn't knock me out completely would work.
Since changing my lifestyle and increased physical therapy and nutritional changes, I will see if the bone density scan doesn't improve. If not, I will def try the Prolia again. I am at high risk for the other drugs, but sometimes new meds are available to check.
