I've taken 2 Prolia injections over the past year & now have a Rheumatologist. In N Dakota they are few & far between to find an Endocrinologist so my PCP sent me to Minot 3 hrs away to the Rheu. This Rheumatologist is adamant about me going on Reclast eventually but after reading what others have gone thru having that infusion, I'm pretty sure I won't take him up on that. He is from India in case that has any bearing on his choice between Prolia & Reclast.....he talks about the cost of Prolia being out of sight & says its only once a year for Reclast. I dont care about the cost as my 2 insurances take care of it....last Prolia injection 4 mos ago was $6,202.....insurance pd. How crazy is that for HIGH cost of a med. I'm 118 lbs & do worry about bone loss. Haven't had a 2nd Dexa Scan since my 1st Prolia one yr ago. Need to do that to see if Prolia is helping bone density. So will do that prior to April when I need to choose P or Reclast.

I just did a binge reading of most of the posts here and recall you bought or tried the Algecal supplements and wondered how you did on those and if you have had a DEXA scan after you started? Was there any results? Was interested in possibly buying into it but not sure. Thank you
