Hi, Daisy17! I need people’s comments, suggestions and care. I feel pain
and lack trust now—destroyed by the medical person whom I had trusted. No,
these people should help me. Instead they told me they would not treat me
from shoulders/neck up. Told me I need to go to my dentist! (So if I put
my head on a fence post and ask help from someone who cannot treat me, i
could be their patient!!!…I am fearful fir others they may harm them as
they have me. No hope. Only damage and cruelty! It makes no sense to
return to their care as they refuse me. Why would I even try? A dentist
is not able to treat me. So perhaps they wish me death. I wont go
back. Now I feel the entire entity if hospital, practice, etc. i am
unsafe. They are a monopoly also. So I need to move to another state.
As old as I am perhaps I shall go silently in my sleep.

Had a procedure which has not tyrned me well. Colonoscopy with doublr
prep. About two weeks later and still ill. Pharmacist told me to come back
in a week and if I look better might get flu shot! She said I am too pale
n coliring so bad afraid I will pass out….i wonder if there is infection in
me now as abdominal pain can be side effect if use Prolia….even prior to
first inhectiin my Vit D was 18. Amgen says shd be 50-100. They told me
to go read about it. I dont absorb vit d from food nor oral. Told me they
dont treat w injections. No matter what it seems miracles I need. I think
I should to another state. I have seen people die or in process as care is
inadequate….

Thank you for caring. I do not know what to do….If I feel better somehow I
will go to Mayo, if accepted, i dont my head on a stake n be a lost cause.

I want to be well enough to travel. I am scared. My dentist and I agree I
need to get help. I guess I cd get hus notes and a scan the NP ordered n
told me she wdnt give me MRI. I have the summary sheet where she diagnosed
osteonecrosis of my jaw.

I am tired. Not sure if I will get well if I do nothing. But do not know
what to do. Thank you for caring!!! Take care, Daisy17! The world needs
you.

Other than prayers, I don't know what I can do to help you. If the Dr who prescribed this medication for you is unwilling to help you with problems caused by side effects, at least he/she should be able to refer you to a specialist. Or does your dentist have any suggestions for a referral? Have you tried calling Amgen at the ph# I gave you earlier? Or researched any of the support groups I suggested to see if anyone else has experienced your problems so you could ask what they did to resolve their issues?

Another thought would be to contact the Attorney General in your state to see if there is anything they can do to assist you in getting your Dr to help you or refer you to another dr? It seems against the oath that doctors take: "The Hippocratic Oath is a traditional ethical pledge taken by physicians, emphasizing principles like "do no harm" and the commitment to act in the best interest of patients." If your dr prescribed a drug that caused you harm, it's unprofessional of them to abandon you when you have serious side effects that need treatment. I don't know if there are any legal remedies you can take but contacting your state Attorney General might be a start.

Another thought is to talk to the pharmacist who filled your prescription and ask if they have any guidance on steps you can take to find treatment.

I hope you have someone in your life who can help you through this. I will continue to pray for you. Please keep us posted on whether you are able to find help.
