Hi, RN here.
I tried alendronate , which helped initially...went off of it with better results.
few yrs later much worse dexa results.. I know exactly your worries...me too
I researched, asked others' opinions, and drove myself nuts...prolia vs others...I didnt want to take any...
a nurse friend told me after 2 years of zero side effects...fer scans were much better with zero side effects...so I tried it...
have had zero side effects... scans much improved..
everyone is different, nothing guaranteed...I figured I would either break a bone or have a stroke over worrying...... I gave myself a day to make a decision... and stop all the googling and opinions...Good luck, I know its hard

Great news! Have you had any teeth or jaw issues?

Hi, Retired RN here,
I have been on Prolia for just about 5 years with no side effects. I am now on
Jubbonti, but I am concerned. I had a molar puled a couple of months ago with a bone fragment left. My dentist has referred me to a denturist to have a partial plate put in. At 79 yrs of age I am hesitant but she says I will have more issues if I don't because of the wear and tear on the molar on opposite side, chances of it breaking down. I will go for the consultation to see what my options are. My dentist did say you have to take the partia out at night to keep the gums healthy. I already have receding gums and don't want further problems. Wish me luck. I'm open to suggestions please.
