Can one stop taking prolia after the first shot?

I started on Prolia the last week of April. By mid to late May my leg hurt so bad when I walked or stood for any length of time. I’ve had X-rays and MRI of hip and back and every kind of doctor I have talked to denied that prolia could be the culprit. I’ve tried everything and it is slowly getting better just in time for the next injection- nope. Everywhere I have looked it says that pain in legs can occur so why does every doctor insist prolia could not be the issue?

@devaziej many people don't have any reaction so many Drs don't know enough about the drugs they give to beware of all possible reactions. I took Fosomax for 8 months and developed severe arrythmia. My Dr sent me for lots of heart tests all negative. I was the one who suggested maybe it is the Fosomax? He didn't think so but I stopped it and got better in a couple of weeks. After reading many reactions on this site and Drs in the dark I have come to conclusions that your general doc doesn't know enough about osteoporosis just knows what drugs to prescribe. I am going natural with weight training and vitamins and collagen powder.

@devaziej I am sorry to hear that you are in pain but Prolia is not causing it! I do not know what you are reading that states the pain in your legs is from a Prolia shot. Please tell me what you are reading that states such as I have been on Prolia for years as well as friends of mine and NONE OF US has experienced any pain from the shot. There are Prolia support groups on Facebook and if you join one, you will read so many positive reviews. It seems that here, everyone likes to report the negative and not the positive. It is a shame. I wish you the best!
