@jeffmarc - Very surprising appointment with my DDS today. He is very familiar with Xgeva and wholeheartedly recommends that I take it. I asked the question, "If you had my mouth, would you take it?"

His reply, "Without a doubt, especially if I had your spinal metastases to go along with your mouth. It is working wonders on bone mets, especially vertebral. I'll gladly sign a release if you need one."

Looks like the decision is back to me.
