My doctor put me on Prolia about five years ago and I was in agony almost from the moment I got the injection. I did not make the connection until three years later. I became an old woman overnight it seemed. Could not walk properly, had difficulty getting in and out of the car, holding on to railings. When I was renewing my prescription at the pharmacy the pharmacist asked how I was getting on and I told her about my pains and she told me it was a side effect. When I researched it I saw the difficulties others were having and I refused to take the injection. Again, overnight I was back to my nimble self. My sons could not believe the difference in me. However, six months ago my doctor suggested I try it again and I am back to being in pain - I have to lift my legs into the car and the skin on my face has become red, scratchy, itchy, sore and crusting. It is disgusting. I am definitely not going to take a second injection. I am miserable.

@JustinMcClanahan, my doctor has started me on Prolia and I had my first injection last month. I didn’t have any side effects - not even soreness in my arm after the injection.
