THANKS so much for your quick response....I just CANCELLED my Prolia shot 10 min before you wrote me.....I felt it might be bad for me & with no Endocrinologist here in N Dakota I plant to go out of state to Cleveland Clinic soon as this snow melts. 2 wks ago I read up on a product from Vanc BC ....I ordered it from there so who knows where its made ....but its called AlgaeCal. Lots of good reviews but like you said maybe there are some people that dont hv good results. AlgaeCal.com When I was searching osteoporosis help online that came up so I read about it for 2 wks then decided why not order it & try it for 6 mos......you might hv heard of it. It should arrive sometime this week ....gel caps 4 per day . With my Microscopic Colitis that gives me much trouble with diarrhea & cramping in stomach I was concerned to get MORE problems going with taking the Prolia injection. Please stay in touch.....I didnt know anyone who was on any meds for osteoporosis...... My T-score scared me.....my GP is an old codger here who had his RN call me to say that he suggested Prolia because he hates Fosamax.....well I had read up on Fosamax & I didnt want that med !
This GP dr is only good enough for easy stuff...not women's bone health. I have to travel 200 miles to my gastro dr & he only sees me 2x a year. I had called his nurse & she ran it by Dr Justino in Minot my gastro dr & he said it was ok to take Prolia with my colitis med Budesonide.....well I want to talk to him in person & ask WHY & will see him March 14, 2019 ~~ I never have felt so 'alone' making a decision about my bones.

Be sure to talk to him about what you take when the pollia is finished. I am told that you must follow up with fosamax or similar drug in order to keep any increased bone density!
