Prolia treatment for osteoporosis: What is your experience?

@jmweissler Sounds like you have been battling osteoporosis for quite a while now. What treatments have you been on prior to Prolia, and did you have any disagreeable side-effects? There are many here, myself included, who are struggling with the question of what to do. I am 95% certain that I will go one of these drugs but I need to do more research to decide which. My endo suggested Reclast. I won't do anything until after April because I have a couple of other things I want out of the way first.
I, and I am sure many others, would really love to hear side-effects and also what if any positive effects you got from the various treatments. Osteoporosis is so much more threatening than I ever realized before. ☹️

Hi JK. Please see my reply to @sue225 below. 🙂
I HAVE HAD THREESHOTS OF PROLIA SO FAR WITH NOTHING BUT GREAT EFFECTS. I NO LONGER SUFFER FROM FREQUENT FRACTURES WHICH I DID BEFORE AND THE CONVENIENCE OF ONLY NEEDED TWO SHOTS A YEAR IS A BONUS FOR ME. BUT I'M SURE IT WORKS DIFFERENTLY FOR MANY OTHERS. MY PROBLEMS STARTED TEN YRS AGO WHEN I WAS GIVEN TWO DOSES OF LEVAQUIN, THE KILLER DRUG......

@jmweissler eventhough I am seriously considering not having anymore Prolia injections due to side effects, I do not regret giving it a go. My fear of fractures is still stronger than my fear of the drugs. I have a feeling Forteo will be the next one for me. I like the fact that its daily so if the side effects are intolerable you can just stop.
