@susanjane77 thanks. I will see if I can get in to see my dentist before I begin shots.
I heard the “the rest of my life” too.
I heard that Prolia is recommended for 10 years.
Given that I am 73; that will take me to 83, then am I on reclast for the rest of my life?
Can I ever get off this medication?

Hi,

Once you start Prolia, you will always be on it (unless for some reason
that it is not helping you) but you will not know till 2-3 DEXA scans.

I think you misunderstood, I was on Reclast before taking Prolia. I was
taken off Reclast because my DEXA scores did not improve.

Hope this helps!
