Calcium and Vitamin D for bone density

Hello, I take calcium and Vitamin D, even though I get a lot of sunshine in Oklahoma. I have osteoporosis and took Forteo for one year. It did not work. The doctor switched to a Prolia, and will have my dexa scan in a month to find out if it worked. They did a lot of blood work to determine why the Forteo did not work, but found no answers. The Prolia is making my leg bones and jaw bones hurt. My GP (not the doctor who treats my osteoporosis) wondered if my early complete hysterectomy (I haven’t taken estrace in 15 years) and high dosage of thyroid I must take daily, effect the absorption of calcium? Do any of y’all know?

I also had a complete hysterectomy young in age. I too have Osteoporosis. I too am taking Armour Thyroid.
However, I am positive I have lost quite a bit of bone loss due to lack of estrogen

After taking one Prolia shot, I could not walk more than a few steps for months. It was like learning to walk all over again. I refused to take any more of the shots as a result of all the issues I encountered after only one. I think this is a dangerous drug.
