Prolia treatment for osteoporosis: What is your experience?

When you are that one out of 10,000 then it’s too serious to take a chance on. I’ve been extremely sick ever since my last Prolia shot and will never take another. Just go google ONJ and see if you want to take a chance on that. I was also told the chances of that happening to me were slim to none! It’s the worse I have ever experienced and I’m not well yet! May never get well! Not worth it!

I understand you won the “this stinks” lottery. I cannot blame you for how you feel. I won a couple of the cancer lotteries, so I really do understand. I still try and look at new things objectively and not color everything with that brush. I wish you a timely recovery.

@kay71 it’s a very scary thing, something each patient has to give a lot of thought to and decide for themselves. Serious fractures are also scary. I had a minor fracture in July (minimally displaced) and i am still not yet back to where I was before then. I have heard of people with more serious fractures who never get back to where they were. Having osteoporosis not only makes a fracture more of a risk, but also impedes recovery.
I am 95% certain I will choose one of the options but I will be very scared of the possible effects.
