Breast cancer patient also with osteoporosis: AI, Prolia and Reclast

@soggybones, if you are at high risk for breast cancer and have osteoporosis, there is a medication specifically for you called Raloxifene. Of course, it is not without possible side effects. I actually had BC and have been taking it for nearly a year now, and it has been better than any of the other drugs I’ve taken, which had horrible side effects, including Prolia, Fosamax, Evenity, and Tymlos.

@maymore Thank you! I've considered Raloxifene, but it would worsen my already bad menopause symptoms. Still, it could protect my bones and lower breast cancer risk so I am giving it serious consideration. The last thing I need is a breast cancer diagnosis. Even if caught early and is a low grade most oncologists highly recommend starting an aromatase inhibitor and that's something I really don't want.
